Suspicious Audi explodes in London, but continues to rack up fines

When prolonged parking turns into a terrorist alert… and even when blown up, the car remains the target of parking officers, this is the case of an Audi A1 in a chic street in the English capital.

An explosion worthy of an action movie

It was on Regent Street, one of the most prestigious streets in London, that it all began. For more than a week, a black Audi A1 sat motionless, puzzling passers-by and racking up fines. A cable connected to his dashboard ended up alerting the authorities, triggering a spectacular operation. The street was evacuated, and a bomb disposal robot carried out several controlled explosions, reducing the vehicle to rubble. The scenes of the intervention seemed straight out of a blockbuster.

A car destroyed… but still fined

Despite the explosions, the Audi A1 did not move an inch. The municipal agents, unfazed, continued to fine him for illegal parking. But the mystery continues, who is the owner? Despite being perfectly compliant with the administrative documents, he remains untraceable.
