There’s a lot of talk in the press today about the Network Rail chief calling for level-crossing questions to be included in the driving test. I mean really, how hard can it be??? lights start flashing, and you stop, simples. Clearly those instructions are a little taxing for this bunch of wreckless motorists. Most of the footage we found were close calls, like this, or this, not to mention this lucky Reliant Robin driver. But then there were a few clips we found of lorries taking on trains, and they didn’t come off well. Clearly this truck driver wasn’t paying attention, while this one did the sensible thing and started running...Pure carnage... In other news, rumours are rife about BMW producing a front-wheel-drive supermini. Why? don’t they already have one? Looks like the Germans want to out-Mini the Mini, which links us perfectly to today’s car chase of the day – a classic trio of Minis. And for Mini fans out there, here’s Mini stunt driver Russ Swift doing his thang. We can’t imagine him doing that while parking in London though, although it makes us realise why we love the dinky supermini so much. Elsewhere, the Audi RS5 was one of the stars of the Audi stand at the Geneva Motor Show and looks set to prise sales away from the BMW M3... So far we’ve only seen statics of it at the show, but here it is on the move. More bad news for Toyota, this time from the US, after one Prius owner had to call the police to help him stop after his accelerator pedal jammed open. Let’s hope he was using hands free. In response, here’s an advice piece on what to do if your accelerator pedal gets stuck... And here’s another one. It's not all doom and gloom though being a Toyota owner, here's a couple of clips that might cheer you up though... Plus this cool Toyota iQ advert. Don’t forget to check out the latest vid to go up from out Geneva coverage, the Bentley Continental Supersports convertible.
