MAN ON FIRST DATE WRECKS FIVE COP CARS

Back on April 9, a British man who was on a first date caused what police call a “catastrophic collision” on the A1 highway that wrecked five police cars. Police pulled over 20-year-old Mazyar Azarbonyad because he was driving over the speed limit and had “defective tail lights.” (* It’s always those darn tail lights, isn’t it.) But when an officer approached his car Mazyar said “nah” and took off in his BMW X5, reaching speeds of more than 120mph. What’s more, he had a woman in his car, a first date whom he was driving home. She told him to stop several times, but he didn’t, and ended up crashing into several police cars. The wreckage was strewn across one of the busiest stretches of the A-1, causing a major traffic backup, and seven officers needed medical treatment. In court, he admitted to having just a temporary driver’s license, no insurance, and said he had paid for only three driving lessons. Mr. Azarbonyad was sentenced to 14 months in jail.
* His girlfriend cried, “I’ll wait for you! In an Uber!!”
* In the UK, you don’t get to “using the brake” until the fourth lesson.
* How do you top that for a second date? Armed robbery?
* On the bright side, the original officers made that month’s speeding ticket quota.
* And five police teams will be getting new police cars!
