  • Marelize Crashed Again – This Time In The Netherlands – Ferrying Someone Else’s Children On A Bicycle

    I’m just going on gut feel here, but I’m not sure the now infamous #MyFokMarelize should be let anywhere near a bike in the future.

    Sure, Marelize Horn did eventually manage to complete a cycle race, after her infamous brush with viral videos and a rugby pole, but by her own admission, she’s a little clumsy on two wheels.

    Now she’s making her mark over in the Netherlands, where she is working as an au pair, reports the Sowetan, grabbing headlines once more after a run-in with a Tesla:

    …she was working abroad for a couple, looking after their three children, aged from four to seven years. Part of her duties involve taking the children to school on an elongated cargo bike.

    It was while ferrying two of the children in a cramped cycle lane that she started to panic and decided to hit the open road instead. “And then I hit a car … a Tesla,” she said.

    “I explained that I’m from Namibia and not familiar (with the roads). My heart almost stopped. I am sure the children were traumatised.”

    The car was left with a 7cm-long scrape but the driver was accommodating and allowed them to go on their way.

    If you’re wondering what an elongated cargo bike looks like, here’s an example:

    As you may have guessed from the fact that the bike is still upright, that is not Marelize at the wheel.

    Let’s just hope the children weren’t too traumatised, and the au pair devotes some time to learning the rules of the road.

    While you’re here, treat yourself to my favourite Afrikaans cuss of the past six months, coming out of Bloubergstrand.
