10 Things… All Car Owners Will Understand

Dude, where's my car?

Rebecca McKnight

From the flat tyre to losing your car parking space, there’s plenty of funny moments that can happen to a car owner. We say funny because they’re funny afterwards. At the time, not so much. Here are 10 things all car owners will understand…

The flat tyre

The bane of the driver’s existence. And it always comes when you’re in a rush and it’s raining.

Tax, insurance and NCT come at the same time

That’s an expensive (and anti-social) month.

The embarrassment of singing full pelt

There’s nothing better than singing in the car as loud as you can. There’s nothing worse than getting caught.

Buying a new car and not knowing it yet

Twenty minutes trying to open the boot. Nightmare.

Forgetting where you parked

We just REALLY like the scenery in this car park.

The traffic weavers

You know who you are.

Drivers who sit RIGHT behind you

Are you trying to see what radio station we’re listening to?

The backseat driver

This one actually does sit right behind you, giving you lots of unwanted helpful advice.

The pains of the learner driver

We’ve all been there!

The ticket rush

You only paid for an hour. You saw a traffic warden earlier. Run. Run like the wind.
