BMW drivers have been voted the rudest on the road

BMW drivers are Britain’s rudest road users, a survey has found.

More than half (56%) of motorists polled believe people who own a BMW M3 are inconsiderate.

Range Rover drivers were second on the list of offensive motorists (48%), followed by Audi TT (43%) owners.

Drivers who get behind the wheel of a Ford Transit van were ranked fifth (36%), despite the often negative reputation of the “white van man”.
