The moment a boy racer skids around a roundabout at a busy Lanarkshire retail park has been caught on camera.
In video footage a silver car can be seen doing dangerous and dramatic wheel spins at Hamilton Palace Grounds on Sunday evening.
The incident was caught on camera by terrified shoppers at around 6.30pm as the driver quickly drove in circles around a small tree in one of the car parks.

Loud screeching can heard as heavy smoke billows from the vehicle.
After wheel-spinning outside of the Hamilton Homebase store, the driver then moves onto the roundabout in the middle of the grounds.
They carelessly speed behind another car on the road and look to narrowly miss a collision before continuing the reckless behaviour.

The incident is understood to have happened at a car meet while the retail park was busy with families and children.
A group of young boys playing on bikes were in the car park just after the car finished flying through the roundabout.
Adults were also spotted with children during the incident across from three busy drive-thrus.
It is not known how many people were in the car at the time but as the driver made their way back to car park, two men were spotted running up to the vehicle while filming the incident.
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "We received report of dangerous driving at Palace Grounds Retail Park in Hamilton around 6.45pm on Sunday, 5 September, 2021.
"There was nothing ongoing upon the arrival of officers, however, enquiries into the incident are ongoing to establish any criminality."
