Boy and girl racers ‘worst drivers in the UK’

New research has suggested that boy and girl racers are the motorists that users of London car hire will most have to look out for, as they have been deemed the worst drivers.

While white van men have long been seen as the most incompetent and infuriating motorists on the road, it seems that there are some new kids in town.

A study by YouGov for Admiral has found that boy and girl racers are the drivers that are the worst users of London car hire may be interested to hear.

It found that 72 per cent of respondents thought this was the case.

Elderly drivers were next, taking 56 per cent, while white van men had to settle for third, with 48 per cent, it may interest users of van hire to learn.

Sue Longthorn, managing director for Admiral, commented: “It looks like the white van man stereotype as the nation’s most disliked driver isn’t merited anymore and needs revisiting.”

In other motoring news, residents of an estate in Devon have drawn up a petition to stop learners using their roads, with the locals saying that more than 100 driving schools do so.
