A Chinese driver became so angry with the faults in his newly acquired VW that he drove back to the dealership where he had bought the car and crashed it through the front window. The man had returned to the dealership on a number of occasions to have faults repaired under warranty. He was offered a number of upgrades but remained dissatisfied and at first, took the dealership to court, with the firm then responding with a counter suit of its own. Becoming enraged with this process, the car owner then opted for this radical option instead. He was arrested for causing the damage to the dealership, which had to cease trading until repairs could be made to the front of the building.

He started using this equipment every time he saw another driver using a phone while at the wheel. The police were less than impressed and he was charged and fined for impersonating an offi

    A British man cut his own car in half as a protest after being fined for having it parked illegally on the road, despite the fact that it was in his own driveway at the time. One wheel of the vehicle had been protruding onto the pavement (sidewalk) by a mere 50mm and the car had been registered by its owner as being off-road, without the annual license duty being paid. However when the man returned from work he discovered that it had been clamped and was told by the authorities that it would be towed away.
