Well I have to admit I never considered this as a side-effect of of those clever automated braking systems that are appearing on more and more cars.
It’s a problem the Sweeney never faced when they hurtled after villains through the streets of London, smashing through market stalls and strategically-placed cardboard boxes.
In this amusing ad from Volkswagen, two villains carjack a Golf GTI before heading off into the night in an attempt to evade the clutches of the law. Eventually they take a wrong turn and find the road ahead closed with nothing but cones and barriers stopping them from escaping.
What’s a driver to do in such a spot? Smash through them of course. The trouble is the Golf has different ideas.
