| Hybrid Cars Pose Hazard to Blind People »

Check out one of the BBC's top TV shows, Top Gear, starring Britain's most famous auto critic, Jeremy Clarkson. This particular show, in which he and his two co-stars fly to Miami, buy three cars for $1,000 each and drive to New Orleans, is hiliarious and available on YouTube in six segments.
Particularly funny are the adventures the three have in finding the cars, where they end up at the most dubious used car lots imaginable in the back, back streets of Miami, and testing of cars on the track at the Moroso Motorsports Park in Palm Beach.
Then there is the driving across Alabama with huge provocative signs painted on the old cars: NASCAR SUCKS; I'M BI and MANLOVE RULES OK: HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT; COUNTRY MUSIC IS RUBBISH. Needless to say they and the camera crew nearly get killed by a mob at a gas station!
Here are the link to the first show.
