In a sign of the times, rapper Bow Wow was caught — on Twitter — bragging about his inebriated driving in a Lamborghini after visiting a nightclub on New Year's Eve. After blogs picked up and posted the tweets widely, he took the messages down and posted an apology calling himself "stupid and immature."

The original message read: "Face numb im whippin the lambo. Tipsy as f*k. " It was followed by another one, seeming to indicate he was headed to other clubs, reading: "Im f**ked up!!! Ohhhh damn. Y I drive the lambo. Chris might have to drive after next spot." Earlier in the evening, he had posted: "Im saying sorry now for what I might tweet...Im young n rich im goin hard 2nite."

The apology, still visible on Bow Wow's Twitter page, reads: "Apologize for that tweet. it was stupid and immature. not a way i want to kick my #2010 year off. i got too much good stuff lined up. my bad."

Mechanics were supposed to be fixing a leaky radiator, but when the owner of a £30,000 Vauxhall Monaro car collected it from the local garage, he discovered it had been taken on a joyride at speeds of 125mph

The owner of the car, who doesn't want to be named, had installed a Roadhawk black-box recorder three months earlier.

When he left his car for repair at the garage in Redditch, there was a quarter of a tank of petrol left. When he collected it, he noticed the tank was empty.

"I looked at the video from the Roadhawk and was completely stunned. They had taken it out for a spin on the A435 at 120mph.

"When I confronted the garage they denied it. Then I told them I had the video and they admitted everything and apologised."

The Roadhawk device records video, GPS data and g-forces for every journey.

Video captured during the incident, which has been posted on YouTube, shows the driver overtaking cars and lorries on the A435 Alcester Road between Redditch to Portway.

The vehicle speeds past a garage at 100mph, before hitting a narrow slip-road at 90mph and continuing through country lanes.

The owner said: "The outside of that lane is marked off and lorries sometimes park up there. If you go wide on that corner at that speed you could easily slam into the back of one."

The 5.7 litre Vauxhall Monaro has a top-speed of 170mph and won Top Gear's best Muscle Car award. West Mercia police confirmed they are investigating the incident. The owner of the garage said he had seen the video but refused to comment.

It warms my heart to see people like this getting hit with fines. Watch it to the end to see extra hilarity - I promise, it's worth it.

Seeing this pisses me off. Why would you even attempt to drive a car you didn't feel comfortable in, let alone mashing the throttle in hopes to impress others? Dee de deeeeeeeee.

We now take a moment to show you another vehicle that is suffering from the owner taking crazy pills. This Escalade was spotted due to the heavy reflection of light coming off it's diamond-plated metal bumper that was put in place of the factory one. Add the altezzas and matching wheel-well guards and you got yourself a tacky Escalade.
