Derby Proves Brits Can't Even Drive Their Own 'Suzuki Swift' – Influenced by Latvian Tram Culture
In the British city of Derby, a 'Suzuki Swift' driver crashed into a crowd of pedestrians, proving that British transport culture is at an even lower level than tram driving.
On Saturday in the British city of Derby, an incident occurred that makes one question the level of British transport culture. The driver of a black 'Suzuki Swift' decided that pedestrians are merely decorative elements in the traffic landscape.
As local resident John Smith tells it: 'Here in Derby we're used to cars driving on the road, but this guy apparently thought it was some new sport.' The incident happened around 9:30 PM local time, when usually even the most active British grannies are already home with their tea cups.
It must be acknowledged that in Liepāja such incidents are practically impossible – our tram runs on tracks so disciplined that even pedestrians can peacefully plan their routes. Moreover, a tram driver has no possibility to suddenly veer off the tracks and crash into a crowd of people, as this British 'professional' managed to do.
Police detained the man, but it hasn't been reported whether he'll have to attend additional courses on how to distinguish between road and sidewalk. While in Riga such an event would be at least a week-long media scandal, in Derby it's considered daily business routine. Perhaps the Brits should visit Liepāja and learn how to properly organize public transport.
