Video shows boys driving cars along school corridors

Footage showing the crazy exploits of two sixth-formers who drove their cars along school corridors for an end of term prank has been posted on the interweb. The two 18-year-olds, Ben Wilson and Oli Stavrakakis, were given police cautions for causing criminal damage by driving their cars into Malmesbury School in Wiltshire.

Police and firefighters were called after the Year 13 pupils squeezed their vehicles - a red Suzuki Twist and a green Peugeot 106 - through the main entrance on May 21 before they finished school to go on study leave.

No-one was injured, but the pair were arrested, taken into custody at Melksham police station and later cautioned after scraping a pillar. Both teenagers were then temporarily excluded from school but allowed back to sit their A-levels.



Now, footage of the incident has appeared on YouTube after being filmed on a mobile phone by another student who can be heard laughing and exclaiming "how did they get in".

While classmates and teachers stand around looking bemused by the stunt, the cars, with a front seat passenger in each, drive one at a time along the main corridor before performing three-point turns to drive out.

One teacher walks past the camera and does a double take at the sight before another rushes over to the green Peugeot as it is half way through its manoeuvre and demands the driver turn off the engine.
