“All I know is there’s petrol in it and it drives.” That was one - not untypical - response we received when we took to the streets of London to find out how much Brits really know about their car dashboard warning lights.

We asked passers-by in London if they understood what the different warning lights mean – you can see how they got on in the video below:
