BMW drivers are the angriest motorists on the UK's roads, according to a poll by the insurance website Gocompare.com.
Even 'white van man' couldn't compare to BMW drivers when it came to road rage – they were pushed into second place. Lee Griffin, Gocompare.com's chief operating officer, said: 'Traditionally the white van man is stereotyped as a bad driver, but this is no longer the case.
'Although the white van man still features highly on the list, he has been well and truly overtaken by BMW drivers – who Brits consider rude, dangerous and bad-tempered.'
There was more bad news for German marques, with Audi closely following white van man in third position.
However, not all German-car owners suffer from the red mist – Volkswagen drivers were rated a reasonably relaxed ninth and Mercedes-Benz drivers were 10th.
