At an earlier hearing Oldroyd pleaded guilty to aggravated vehicle taking and damaging a Mercedes car, and being reckless as to whether life was endangered.

what? That's actually a whole paragraph from TFA... these guys suck at english.. which is ironic.

After reading the headline, I searched google for a snarky Finding Nemo "I want to go home" picture and instead found this:

Aggravated vehicle taking and damaging a Mercedes vehicle. Must be special circumstances for Mercedes where a Jaguar would have resulted in a lighter sentence.

Soon it was winter trees and dark, my brothers, with a country dark, and at one place I ran over something big with a snarly, toothy rot in the headlamps, then it screamed and squelched under, and old Dim at the back near laughed his gulliver off.

We could viddy the name on the gate of this cottace veshch was HOME, a gloopy sort of name...

Well there is the problem, he was driving on the wrong side of the road. Always so easy to spot the stupid criminals.

"cottace" = "cottage", dammit. Almost got it right. That was a passage from one of my favorite books, "Ethel the Aardvark Goes Quantity Surveying".

Unless you pronounce it "Jag-you-are" which is 15 to life.

Some of the cream of Daily Mail posters in the comments

As a Yorkshire man I can picture this guy now -a drunken chav that thought it was a bit of a laugh. Hes got to be pitied because hes sub-human and if the government had organised a proper training and schooling by hard work or even conscription he might have gotten a vestige of intelligence in stead he like many in Britain today are "brain damaged". And before my post is "pulled" I worked with many truly mentally handicapped and never saw one as stupid as this one.

Wow, the U.K. has a lot of effeminate looking cars. Even the Police cars are station wagons. What qualifies for a muscle car over there?

Strange...in the article it actually does say 30 days community service. See:

At Leeds Crown Court Judge Kerry Macgill jailed Oldroyd indefinitely to serve at least three-and-a-half years.

You're so insightful. Watching telly is so much better than reading.

He also admitted driving without insurance, driving over the alcohol limit and failing to stop after an accident.

they don't carry insurance on city buses?

He was driving on both sides of the road (but not at the same time, DUH!)

If he did that shiat over in the States, how much time will he have gotten?

/I guess he couldn't afford to buy GTA.

I love the folks who can find some justification when some asshat pulls a stunt off like this. When my car (and 4 others) were broken into a few weeks ago the guy's excuse was he needed money. One of my coworkers thought the guy was justified because he was homeless. WTF.
