I was driving home yesterday and was stuck in the usual ultra-slow moving traffic when I saw a strange sight coming towards me. It looked like a 'granny-mobile' (those funny vehicles that old people like to drive around far too fast) with a roof over the top of it. This thing had a number plate though, and it was on the road in the flow of traffic. It got closer to me and I saw it had no sides/ doors. Taking into account that it was raining pretty hard, and does quite often round here, this didn't seem like a very sensible vehicle to be driving around. As I drew alongside I saw there was a bloke in his 60s, wrapped up to the nines to protect himself from the weather, driving this thing. When I got a good look at the back of this vehicle I learnt that it was a Renault Twizzy:
Apparently you can actually get two people in these things and you shouldn't get wet so long as you don't stop. So lots of driving through red lights then. I'd also like to see someone try and fit the weekly shopping in there, it'd be falling out of the sides. Has anyone else seen these genuinely being driven around??
