Priorities are important. To many folks, not getting their only car seized by the police ranks high on their priority list. To others, making sure their food from McDonaldâs doesn’t get cold before making it home is even more important. This was the case for one especially hungry driver who recently got caught speeding and overtaking an unmarked police car on a single-lane road in Sheffield, England. As a result, he got pulled over and got his MK6 Volkswagen Golf GTI taken away.
Seizing the vehicle might sound extreme for speeding, but the speeding and reckless driving combined with the fact that the car wasnât insured was enough for the South Yorkshire Police to determine that the fast food aficionado behind the wheel couldnât take his car home that night. At press time, thereâs no word on the fate of the driverâs food nor the temperature at which it was consumed.
âThis vehicle’s driver decided to overtake our officers in an unmarked vehicle at excessive speeds, putting everyone’s life at risk,â said a South Yorkshire Police spokesperson to Metro. âAll because he didnât want his McDonaldâs to go cold.â
“Itâs safe to say the driver wasnât âlovin’ it,ââ said the spokesperson referencing the restaurant’s famous slogan.
Next time you’re bringing food home from the drive-thru, simply turn on the heated seat function on the passenger seat (if your car is so equipped) and let it keep your food warm while you drive home at a nice, legal pace. This driver either didnât know about that trick or didnât have heated seats in his GTIâand look where that got him.
This might be the most anyone has ever paid for a meal from McDonaldâs. What is it about GTI drivers and a passionate love of McDonald’s?
