Are Skoda drivers really the most foul-mouthed on the road? According to a recent poll, it seems they are! Researchers found that Skoda drivers swear at least once for every 104 words they utter while behind the wheel. That’s quite a lot of expletives!
But it’s not just Skoda drivers who can’t control their language. Tesla drivers also have a tendency to let rip at their fellow motorists, but only once every 145 words. Range Rover drivers aren’t far behind, with one expletive per 106 words. Even BMW drivers aren’t innocent, turning the air blue every 109 words. And Ford drivers come in fourth place, releasing a curse for every 111 words spoken.
Interestingly, Ford transit drivers seem to be a little less sweary, swearing only once per 114 words. It seems that different car brands attract different types of drivers, with some more prone to colorful language on the road than others.
The poll, conducted by casino.online, asked 2,000 UK drivers if they swear while driving and how often. The results were used to calculate their “swear rate.” Peter Yates, a spokesperson for casino.online, commented on the unexpected findings, saying, “We used to think of Skoda drivers as the type who pootled along and were quite mild-mannered. But our findings show that is far from the truth these days. They are not averse to turning the air blue when they are irritated by other drivers.”
So, if you find yourself sharing the road with a Skoda driver, beware of their foul language! And remember, it’s always best to keep calm and stay courteous behind the wheel.
