Ever been frustrated by a car parking in a bike lane?

Ever had to swerve to avoid a car sitting right in your clearly marked bike lane?

Ever had the urge to run over that car with a tank?

If you have answered yes to all three questions you will love Mayor Arturas Zuokas! He has also  had the urge to run over one of these annoying cars and being mayor in a small Eastern European country (where, lets face it, anything goes!) he actually drove a tank over a parked car!

I shall repeat that for emphasis: HE DROVE A TANK OVER A CAR PARKED IN A BIKE LANE!

Picture: SWNS

I don’t know about you but I feel an overwhelming desire to applaud!

I think my favourite part of this story is not that he rn overthe car with a tank, but that it seemed as if that was the first idea that came into his mind. He said this about the incident:

“This tank is a good tool to solve the problem of parking in the wrong place.”

I wonder if Clover Moore has any left over Cold War period Tanks lying around that she can use for this exact purpose!

Lets all hope so!
