A man from Mosta is convinced he met every single one of Malta’s idiot motorists while driving to work this morning.

Karl Abdilla, 31, left home at 7:45am to get to his workplace in Msida.

“I think everyone must’ve had an extra glass of stupid juice for breakfast this morning, because the idiocy was relentless,” he said.

“I swear I encountered every type of terrible Maltese driving, all in the space of 45 minutes.

“As soon as I turned the key in the ignition and drove out of my garage, I knew it was going to be one of those days. Right off the bat, some asshole was blocking the road with his van while chatting to someone. Then when I honked he looked at me as I’d inconvenienced him.

“It was all downhill from there. If awful drivers were Pokemon, I would’ve caught ’em all. There was the driver who didn’t stop at a junction, the driver who entered the roundabout even though I was still on it, the driver who cut into my lane without indicating, the driver on her phone. And for good measure, there was also a motorcyclist who overtook me on the passenger side. I could go on.”

Abdilla said he was looking forward to the evening commute back home.

“Who knows what I’ll come face to face with. I’m fully expecting to see a hunter shooting birds out of his car window on Birkirkara bypass.”
