haha Fail!

Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

Just to clear up are they legal and or worth it in a word no, I was stopped and fined twice for mine so threw them in the boot for shows only.

All to do with anpr cameras not being able to read them.
