Dowly's Taxis

Herr-Berbunch · 12-30-11, 05:50 PM

!

Quite possibly one of the most stupid things I've seen done on a road, and yet had it been on one-way streets I'd want a go...!

OK, I know it's supposedly Latvian so more likely to be Ediko than Dowly - but where's the fun in that

See if you can find on your TV or on youtube

Dumbest Stuff on Wheels.

One of my favourite TV shows.

Welcome to Finland. Population crazy! Agree with your sentiments though.

The first encounter with a roundabout would have been entertaining/interesting

Particularly if there was a tree on it. Ever decreasing circles...

I dunno, I thought Dowly's Taxi would be more like this...

Hahah we used to do that as kids on my uncles farm in Wisconsin. Of course the farm road going out to his property was long and desolate so we didn't worry about intersections or oncoming traffic.

And while I agree with the first two sentences, I feel obligated to point out that those register plates don't look very Finnish to me. Difficult to say, though, the resolution of the video isn't high enough to tell the details exactly.

The comments say it's filmed in Latvia.

I did say that it was probably more Ediko (from Latvia) than Dowly (from Finland), but I thought with Dowly's reputation here (not the boobs) it would be more apt.

That said, I'm sure it's either been or about to be done in Finland...!

I'M DISAPPOINTED!

Dowly + Taxi = Scantily clad women

Not this kind of dangerous nonsense!*

*Except when scantily clad women are involved...

Dudesons did that, but they used a couch.
