We’ve all had bad days behind the wheel. Maybe your project car breaks down miles from home, or maybe you get into a little fender bender. But a man from Northampton, Northamptonshire, England is here to challenge all of our bad car days. He managed to get his Renault Megane impounded a mere 30 seconds after purchasing it.

As reported by the , the man apparently drove the car off the lot and almost into the front bumper of a police car.

During the traffic stop, police learned the man decided to take a chance and did not have insurance. That poor decision led to him losing his sweet Renault Megane only seconds after purchasing it. I hope he had enough money left over to pay for an Uber back home!

Northamptonshire Police is currently running a called Operation Journey with the goal of reducing road casualties. Research suggests that uninsured drivers are more likely to be involved in collisions and other traffic offenses. Since the program began, 64 vehicles have and 19 for drivers not having a license.

Remember kids, driving is a privilege, not a right. And you should definitely insure your new car purchase before you point it at a police car.
