Franz Ferdinand frontman Alex Kapranos has hit out at the RAC after his vehicle broke down on a motorway.Kapranos posted a string comments on X complaining that he had been waiting for 15 hours before the breakdown service assisted him.In an initial post he wrote: “Hi @TheRAC_UK @RAC_Care.

I’ve been waiting to be picked up from a motorway breakdown for 7 hours. Your operators don’t seem to know what is going on.

Or say trucks have been dispatched when they haven’t. Is this normal? Is this my life now? Waiting for the truck that never comes?”At that point when a fan asked about the situation, the singer replied: “Oh, I’ve been speaking to operators.

The answer is just ‘I don’t know’ or they put you on hold then hang up.”Hi @TheRAC_UK @RAC_Care. I've been waiting to be picked up from a motorway breakdown for 7 hours.
