Why you Shouldn’t Use your Van to Give Rides to your Mates

We’re not talking about giving your friends the odd lift here and there – we’re not that stingy. However, if you’re planning on sticking a chair to the roof of your van, stick a mate in said chair, and then speed around… You may want to rethink things.

And no, this week’s post is not a joke! 

When playing daredevil goes wrong

You know when you were a child, and you were playing on a bike or a skateboard with your friends, you were maybe tempted to try out some wacky moves. And that’s absolutely fine, as long as health and safety was taken into consideration.

However, what we don’t recommend is fixing a picnic chair on top of your van with bungee straps as a 22-year-old. And then using that chair to have not one – but 4 friends – having an ol’ jolly in it whilst you speed around in a car park for A CATTLE MARKET.

You can’t make this stuff up, and reader, we promise we’re not.

In fact, you can read more about it here if we’ve got your curiosity radar on the go. 

What playing daredevil with your van could cost you

Dear van driver friends, as always, we like to say that something just aren’t worth it. And once again, we have been proven right. 

This van driver rebel found himself being marched to Lincoln Magistrate’s Court where he has been given a suspended sentence of just over 2 years in prison. Let’s not forget about the fact that’s also been banned from driving for 18 months, too.

Again. Just not worth it, is it?
