Careless driving

A man in the Chinese city of Guangdong has been charged for careless driving. He was seen driving his vehicle using one of his feet to steer while playing a game on his cellphone. Meanwhile in the city of Changsha, a man was seen cutting down a small tree and then loading it onto his scooter and departing at speed. He escaped and has not so far been traced, as police have yet to get to the root of the problem.
