VIDEO: Wrong way down a Chinese motorway

It takes courage to drive down the wrong side of a motorway and a lot of nerve. But this driver in China appears to have both in large quantities as he heads off on his journey. Apparently, his passenger is his equal when it comes to sangfroid. He even appears in camera shot with a big smile on his face. Luckily no crash took place.

It takes courage to drive down the wrong side of a motorway and a lot of nerve. But this driver in China appears to have both in large quantities as he heads off on his journey.

Apparently, his passenger is his equal when it comes to sangfroid. He even appears in camera shot with a big smile on his face.

Luckily no crash took place. However, the video stops just before the taxi arrives at something in the road. Was it a road block?

But a warning to viewers. While it appears that everyone walked - or at least hobbled - away from the crashes, it might be unsettling viewing.

    ZF used bauma 2013 to show the next stage of development for its cPower continuously variable transmission (CVT). By combining the transmission with a hybrid module, ZF said greater operating efficiencies were available from the integration of start/stop technology and energy recovery from regenerative braking. Potentially, the hybrid drive system has the ability to boost fuel efficiency by up to 25% in addition to the 20% higher operating efficiency already offered by the cPower transmission, said ZF.
