Dont try this at home......




Most car testers are ok, they don’t always like what we do but they can accept it. But not this guy !! While trying to overtake him, he tried to block us all the time to protect the prototype, a Citroen DS3. At one point we overtook him at a crossing, but we had to use all of the other side’s road AND a parking lot because he didn’t want us to pass him. But soon after that he made a kamikaze maneuver, and because I still like to have my car in one piece, I decided to brake hard, very hard or else he would have crashed into my car. Someone should learn this fuckhead that when they drive on public roads they have to follow the rules and accept if someone wants to take photos. Well, he blocked us all the time and the prototype got away. We chased after him to tell him one or the other rule here in Sweden, but he didn’t stop and went into their facility.


Two hours later we noticed this idiot again, same car but this time without the prototype. We went after him, to explain some stuff to him, but he took off as quick as he could, we where after him, and this time the gate to the facility was closed so he had to stop. I got out of my car to talk to him, and then this fuckhead gets out of his shitty car with an iron stick, screaming some French/English mixture that he will kill me if I come closer !!!! He noticed my partner’s camera and used his brain for the first time this day; he got back in his car and took off into the facility. I´ll decided that’s it and went to the police. We had proof of both the idiotic driving and him wanting to hit me with the iron stick, photos and video. But here the police are so scared to take action against car testers, so they listened to me, and to the boss of that driver and decided: Well, it’s good that you have talked now. That’s it !! There was also a guy called Åke there, he is like a janitor at the test facility but he likes to see himself as the Sheriff. He claimed that it’s because of us photographers that it’s less testing in Sweden this year. I wonder if he has heard about the economical crisis..hahahahaha. I guess, if you’re stupid, then you’re stupid. Well I have a lot of stories about this Åke guy, so I’m sure you will hear about him sooner or later.


Back to the Citroen prototype, yepp, we managed to get some photos of it before the chase, and the rest while they were driving on the test track on the ice ;-)
