In the UK the owner of a small three wheeled car is growing extremely frustrated with the actions of local youths who keep rolling his car on its side. This follows on from a popular British motoring TV programme in which the presenter repeatedly rolled the same model of car when cornering during a driving demonstration. The presenter wished to highlight the instability of the vehicle in a humorous manner, however this has inspired the youths to roll the man's car on its side on a number of occasions. The vehicle owner understandably finds this behaviour somewhat less than humorous and the repair bills for his car continue to mount.
