Driving with Wrench

2013 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

This one deserves an Honourable Mention.

Simply a video of a carload of fools who decide that it is reasonable to drive a car with a wrench on the steering column.

Needless to say that if the wrench - which was flat and could not be locked to a certain width - had slipped while they were turning, we could easily have a Darwin Award on our hands.

Definitely Keep: Honorable Mention
Typically we don't accept stories involving multiple people in cars since the safety of everybody is the responsibility of the driver. But in this case everybody in the car (which is at least the driver & the camera man) knew of the potential danger and were perfectly fine with it. So I'm more than willing to give these idiots the nod. Thanks, Darien!
