Drivers who wear flat caps......

[Wacky Racer]

I remember many years ago a mate said to me steer well clear of anyone wearing a flat cap whilst driving,....... at the time I thought what an unusual thing to say, but I now realise he was quite correct, they are usually a menace, often driving a Morris minor 1000 at 30mph in a NSL, with a fixed stare and both hands gripped firmly on the steering wheel.

Usually they have their wife in the front passenger seat, who, more often than not has a blue rinse and weighs about twenty stone.

Keep your eyes peeled, you know it makes sense.

Drivers wearing baseball caps are far, far worse...especially if being worn backwards.

Being follicly challenged I have no option but to wear a baseball cap in the Boxster is essential otherwise I fry. But I do wear it the right way.

I two old boys, both sporting tweed flat caps in a slammed, like laying frame, slammed hillman imp, with a cage.and bucket seats.

Surprised? I was!!

I'm tempted to get a flat cap for open top driving.

I might even get a pipe, even tho I don't smoke.

Even worse flat cap and leather driving gloves aka motorised muppet!

I try to avoid anyone who wears any type of headgear while driving on the road. I've never had a positive experience interacting with them.

Frightened by a motorcycle at an early age?

Baseball caps so much worse as has already been mentioned. Double chav points if being sported back to front, or at a jaunty angle. Normally hear them coming before you see them...BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM...innit bruv

^^ This, plus anyone with silver hair, or sits so low that from behind it looks like the car has no driver, avoid like the plague!

Anyone under 30 wearing a baseball cap driving a car is likely a dangerous, incompetent lunatic.

Anyone over 30 wearing a baseball cap driving a car is likely a bald, dangerous, incompetent lunatic.

Anyone still wearing a flat cap probably requires a medical assessment of their ability to continue operating a motor vehicle.

My dad bought me a tweed flat cap when I bought my 1st Saab aged 26 and has been on the parcel shelf of every car since (9).... always confuses people who think I have borrowed the old mans motor

It's the flat cap in conjunction with huge sticky out ears and a driving position that leans toward the middle of the car so they look like they are staring forward immediately under the rear view mirror that is the worst warning.
If it's not Mr. Bean driving his Mclaren, beware!

It's the old Jasper Carratt thing looking at cardigans and thinking yes now is the time
