Comments on: More Maltese savages make the news: they’re rich enough for a boat and an SUV but too primitive to know they can’t just drive the lot down the motorway as though they’re at home in Malta

In reply to Joe Fenech. Where did you get this idea from? Driving on the highway is the easiest bit when driving abroad.

In reply to fm. If people buy their toys cheaply, yes, it's junk. No second-hand car in good condition and with low-mileage in England (or any European country) is cheap.

I read the article. Hilarious! So not only did they idiots get a Euro 1200 fine, but had their licence, car and boat confiscated.

It says a lot about the amateurish Maltese police force which allows drivers to get away with murder. Fortunately, once you get to the mainland, it’s a completely different ball game.

In reply to r.meilak.

EU countries should add an extra component to their driving test – ‘driving on highways’. Driving on a highway without sufficient training and appropriate experience is simply ‘madness’.

I could be wrong but that looks to me more than just a boat and that SUV not the right vehicle to tow it especially on a motorway.

Quite typical though – they find the money to buy such large and bombastic vehicles but then scrounge on safety.

Reminds me of these stupid sulkies on the road. We have to suffer the inconvenience caused by them so that their owners can practise their hobby on the cheap.
