Lambo Murchielago v Mini Bus Taxi - Who Wins You Decide...
Discussion
I was behind a Lambo Murchielago (**** - its so wide) in Sudbury/Suffolk today and a mini bus taxi coming towards us, on a tight road with resident parking, the mini bus had running boards and yes, it scratched either the rear quarter wheel arch and/or alloy. :0(
Cue heated discussion for 5 - 10 mins... Wouldn't want to pick that bill up, excess or not!
The Lambo bloke stepped out with no shoes on, barefooted! Anyone else drive on here like that?

Yes it was me! What a wan**r... I could see that he was not going to stop. . Luckily only a small Mark on the rear alliy that kind of polished out.. Some paint gone. . But can't be arsed to go through the hassle of claiming. .
beware taxi drivers. .I am being forgiving this time. .. First and last time though. .

LamboDom,
couldn't believe what I was seeing tbh, but when I saw him exit his mpv/bus i was glad it wasn't me, I might have decked him...
I was approaching up behind when both cars had already or just stopping, then I saw contact/no daylight when he moved forward and then I just shook my head in disgust... hope the cost is negligible mate.
You local to the Sudbury area? I am from Waldignfield, a couple of miles away.

Yep, I do. Often in the summer.I've been told its also illegal in Spain to drive in flip flops but not in bare feet. so a few people I know out there kick off their backless shoes and drive bare footed.
LamboDom you have the patience of a saint. I bleeding hate bus drivers who just think they can do what they like because they're bigger. I'd be making a right stink about of it just to bring the Pillock back to earth.

I suppose it is the most realistic feel just using bare feet... Might well try it on a warm day!I've been told its also illegal in Spain to drive in flip flops but not in bare feet. so a few people I know out there kick off their backless shoes and drive bare footed.

Me too, I love wearing my flip flops so will always drive the TVR bare feet when wearing them. Tried driving with them on once and had a s
t the pants moment with one of them getting stuck under a pedal 
Had me in Cerb v bus driver in Grindleford in Derbyshire few years back. Parked cars on his side of the road, me going uphill no parked cars.... but who cares what the Highway Code says when you drive a f***ing bus, he barrelled down towards me, didn't give way, and I had to swerve sharply towards kerbside to avoid a collision......
Guess what I got for my troubles....?
two kerbed alloys!!!
