One Kiwi’s trash heap on wheels has caused WOF inspectors to call out those of us who have rubbish building up in our footwells.
If ya got a car, ya know how it goes. Those old receipts, a couple of sneaky Coke cans left in the cup holders, they just stack up fast. But this one took it to a whole new level.
With a few coffee-stained cups, a pack of ciggy papers, a vape or two and tissues galore this driver has hit the pit of filthy cars.
So much so, Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency aren’t mucking around. They're saying: "Clean your car before you take it to get a warrant of fitness check.”
"We don't expect inspectors to move rubbish out of their way in order to do their job — that's why people need to clean their vehicle before taking their vehicle in for an inspection."
"If there’s anything obstructing an inspector’s ability to do their job they’ll refuse to do a WOF check on your vehicle," they added.
It comes as NZTA also issued a warning about drivers swapping out pedals for wooden blocks and decking their vehicles in artificial grass - but that’s a whole conversation for another day.
Kiwis have been hilariously reacting to the filth, with one FB user writing: “That's nothing I've seen 100 times worse than this one 😂”
“Wouldn't expect anything else from a Honda driver that carries zigzags,” said another.
While a third added: “Ew I'm pleased we can't smell that through the photo 🤢”
Let me tell ya, my own ride ain't exactly sparklin' either. Weeks-old work lunch containers and a serious coffee addiction are my downfall.
While this car might take the prize for the grubbiest, I reckon there are a few of us out there who could give them a run for their money.
