A disgruntled British driver decided he didn’t want his car to be towed away by ‘The Man’ so he simply drove the motor off the back of the tow truck…

Talk about making a bad situation even worse… This bloke didn’t want the silver Opel Vauxhall Astra in the video to be towed away to an impound lot where he’d have to pay a storage fine and pick it up on a later date, so instead, he just threw the car into reverse and drove right off the back of the removal truck.

Unfortunately, there’s very little detail surrounding the run-away-driver, but according to the ever-reliable user submitted info on Live Leak, the incident occurred “in Walthamstow in London on August 29th.”

Apparently, the car wasn’t even registered to the man who drove off and to make matters even worse, “he has so far not been caught”.
