drivin'

+------------------ Bizarre Motorists -------------------+  
  
Former traffic policeman William Alexander set out to drive the 15 miles from Hereford to Ross-on-Wye in 1996. He and his wife were found confused 36 hours later, after a 1,000 mile drive, going the wrong way down the MI near Barnsley.  

In 1994, a nun who said she was rushing an injured dog to the vet was fined for reckless driving after refusing to stop for armed police in New York State.  

Leroy Linen, a scrap-metal dealer from the Bronx, was banned from driving 633 times between 1990 and 1994.  

Assuming she had failed after hitting the curb during her 1995 test at Lowestoft, Tcheeka Johnson punched the examiner on the leg, screeched to a halt and pushed her out of the passenger door.  

Trying to test his oil level manually, a Wakefield motorcyclist got his finger stuck in the oil tank and had to summon the fire brigade to release him.
