Dramatic video footage has emerged showing a driver performing reckless doughnut manoeuvres around a busy Hampshire roundabout, sending plumes of tyre smoke into the air during an unsanctioned car meet.
The shocking incident, captured on camera and widely shared across social media platforms, shows the silver car spinning violently in circles while other vehicles and spectators look on. The dangerous display occurred during what appears to be an organised gathering of car enthusiasts that descended on the area.
Police Launch Immediate Investigation
Hampshire Constabulary has confirmed they are actively investigating the incident after the footage sparked widespread outrage and safety concerns. Authorities have urged anyone with information about the driver or the event to come forward immediately.
"This type of driving is completely unacceptable and puts both the driver and innocent members of the public at serious risk," a police spokesperson stated. "We take road safety extremely seriously and will pursue all lines of enquiry to identify those responsible."
Dangerous Trend in Car Culture
The incident highlights growing concerns about illegal car meets across the UK, where participants often engage in dangerous stunts and anti-social behaviour. Local residents have expressed frustration about noise pollution and safety hazards caused by such gatherings.
Road safety organisations have condemned the behaviour, emphasising that roundabouts and public roads are completely inappropriate venues for stunt driving. "This isn't entertainment - it's a potentially lethal activity that could easily result in tragedy," one campaigner commented.
Police are reviewing the footage and appealing for witnesses as they work to identify the driver behind this alarming display of dangerous driving.
