if that happened in london we would just walk round it and not take any notice at all. as if we had seen it a hundred times before!
I wonder if they could install those machines like in multi story car parck for them to just put their oyster card in?

Any way in London the car would get stripped of all its parts in a short while.

In German, it´s "Frau am Steuer - das wird teuer!"

(Woman driver - gonna be expensive, albeit it doesn´t rhyme in English)
