‘You can’t park there, sir’
A video of a passer-by stopping to talk to a driver who has crashed their hatchback into a ditch provides some classic British banter.
The hilarious clip was first posted to YouTube in 2019 and shows a car stuck in a ditch beside a road in Kent, England.
Another motorist pulls up and asks the man if he’s all right before trotting out the line: “You can’t park there, sir”.
The man behind the wheel of the stricken car, who is on the phone to the police at the time, remains calm as the other motorist makes subtle digs and accuses him of drink-driving.
When the driver asks for the name of the road they are on, the first reply is: “It’s a concrete road, a thin, narrow back-lane”.
Hoping for a more useful answer, the driver repeats his request. “Push It Right In The Ditch Road, it’s called,” comes the response.
