It has become a trend in many Mzansi townships for drivers to display anything - from bicycles to nutritional drinks - at the back of their cars using bike racks. However, one South African Volkswagen Polo driver has apparently gone too far by displaying beers on the rear of his Polo.
According to a post by @AdvoBarryRoux, the driver is based in Johannesburg, Gauteng, as his registration suggests. The car was spotted hauling a number of bottles of Corona, a beer that is mostly consumed by the working class in the townships.
