Nation’s least favourite drivers revealed as Brits fume over ‘rude’ and ‘aggressive’ motorists
THE UK’s least favourite drivers have been revealed as these “rude” and “aggressive” people spark outrage on the road.
Brits have voiced their opinion on the most inconsiderate motorists throughout the nation, as part of new research.
The data, collected by Moneybarn, divided different car brands into six categories; Best Drivers, Most Patient, Most Considerate, Rudest Drivers, Most Aggressive and Worst Drivers.
According to the figures, van drivers received the highest score for Worst Drivers.
They also came in at second place for Rudest Drivers and Most Aggressive.
The research also found a Google search of the term ‘why are van drivers…’ revealed suggestion results such as ‘so aggressive’ and ‘so stupid’.
But, the car model which topped the charts in the above categories was BMW.
Research showed 23.60 per cent of survey participants voted BMW drivers rudest on the road, while 21.50 per cent reckoned they were the most aggressive.
Similarly, nearly 18 per cent of Brits in the poll thought van drivers should be crowned rudest, and just over 19 per cent felt they were the most intimidating.
Motorists sporting Audi’s were ranked the third rudest, aggressive and worst drivers behind the wheel.
On the other hand, Volvo owners were voted Britain’s best drivers, with impressive scores in the patient and considerate categories.
They earned themselves an 8.15 out of 10 in the Best Drivers’ Score, which was closely followed by Volkswagen owners who were handed a 7.60.
Motorists taking Fords for a spin scooped third place, however they scored the highest in the Best Drivers, Most Patient and Most Considerate options.
Other models in the survey included Mini, Mercedes-Benz, Tesla and Land Rover.
