Two young car enthusiasts in Russia decided to make an unexpected trip to a local car dealership, in a bid to buy a high performance Jaguar. The five year old boys escaped from their kindergarten and headed for the dealership to purchase a sports car. The fact that they had no money on them did not deter the boys in their quest. Luckily they were spotted by a woman driving past in her car. She took the boys to the nearest police station and they were later returned unharmed to their parents, much to the relief of all concerned. The boys had planned the escape over the previous few days. The local authorities responded by sacking the supervisor of the kindergarten.

    A new report by the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM) in the UK suggests that older drivers are as safe as drivers from all other age groups, and perhaps more so.

Luckily for the cyclist, a driver in a pick-up truck spotted what was happening and placed his vehicle in-between the animal and the bicycle, while also sounding his horn.

    A driver in Wales drove around for a day with an estimated 20,000 unwelcome passengers until the problem got to be too evident. The video shows the car of the 65-year-old grandmother, finally parked in the small town of Haverfordwest, literally buzzing with bees. Apparently, a queen bee got stuck on the vehicle and her community decided to follow the car and stick to it as well. It took two members of the Pembrokeshire Beekeepers' Association, a park ranger and some local people to coax the travelers

    Some drivers never quite get the hang of parallel parking, even when the space is large. The Mercedes driver is shocked, but at what we don’t know – lack of parking ability, perhaps? Or the damage to the Ferrari, not to mention her own car. The real clincher is that the Merc is a convertible. Not many blind spots in that car. Mercs and Ferraris are often meeting on the roads, unexpectedly, that is. A recent mishap in the UK proved that old saying – ‘kids will be kids’. And kids with rich parents will
