I'm NOT with this guy

In the jaundiced public eye, BMW owners are a certain type. Sadly, this idiot has done nothing to kill the stereotype. I mean, how long does it take to get a fob battery when your car is stalled in front of a fire hydrant? Four days???

The owner is probably lying. I suspect he ran out of gas and spent his last dollar on those cheesy M stripes on the grille. Note the lack of a front plate, too... even though there's a bracket mounted to the bumper.

The original article from the NY Post has more detail than the C&D summary. In addition for parking in front of the hydrant, they cited him for the phony US Postal Service placard on the dash.

Jackass.

Shame they smashed the windows and didn't just ram it out the way instead.


I thought finally the BMW driver stereotype was starting to disappear. Helped immensely by Audi drivers actions for the last 20 years.

But there's still a few who have to act like dicks.
