‘No, no keep STRAIGHT!’ Exasperated driver films woman making a complete mess of reversing down a narrow lane as waiting cars stack up behind him

  • Dashboard footage shows a woman driver struggle to reverse down a single lane 
  • The driver cannot keep the car straight and drives into bushes in Hertfordshire
  • Cars stack up behind the filmer while he waits for the woman to finish reversing

A woman could not keep her car straight as she dragged it through bushes steering from side-to side while trying to reverse down a single lane.

The driver took three minutes to drive down the country road in Redbourn, Hertfordshire while cars stacked up waiting for her.  

Dashboard footage from the car in front of her films her steering too far left, rolling forward and so far right that the side of her car in in the bushes. 

As the woman steers from left to right the agitated filmer says: ‘No, no, no keep straight.’ 

A driver took three minutes to reverse down a single country lane in Redbourn, Hertfordshire unable to keep her car straight and driving into bushes

After the driver eventually gets past one of the cars parked on the side of the road the filmer is able to move forward. 

The woman struggles past the second car, picks up a little speed and drives her car slightly into the bush again. 

Finally she manages to keep her car straight as she reverses slowly down the road.  

The driver had to reverse because she could not pass the filmer’s car and all the cars  stacking up behind him meant she had to clear the road. 

After the driver struggled past two cars parked on the side of the road she was more able to keep her car straight and reversed down the road

After the driver struggled past two cars parked on the side of the road she was more able to keep her car straight and reversed down the road 

The filmer said there were a lot of cars behind him because an accident on the main road in Rodbourn diverted traffic down the single country lane. 

He said: ‘Little did they (or us) know, but the lady in the white car – she was ever so sweet, and a lot embarrassed – had missed the reversing lesson whilst doing her driving test!’
