During an incident in Russia recently, a wheeled loader driver rammed the machine into a row of cars as well as a van, before the piece of equipment then ground to a halt. At this point one of the owners of the vehicles that had been damaged jumped up and began pummelling the wheeled loader driver. Other enraged vehicle owners quickly appeared and the wheeled loader driver stumbled out of the machine cab, to be further assaulted by those surrounding him. The wheeled loader driver was barefoot and seemed to be drunk, although this would not necessarily explain his actions. He no doubt will have time to regret his foray as it seems unlikely the owners of those vehicles he managed to mangle will forgive and forget.

    Many motorcyclists are well aware that car drivers do not look properly before manoeuvring, which is borne out by analysis of crash results. But one lucky biker in Australia found to his surprise that one car driver was even less aware than usual. The motorcycle rider was waiting at a junction when a 4x4, which had come to a halt ahead of the stop line when the lights changed, suddenly reversed. Seeing the car about to impact, the biker jumped aside from his motorcycle. The 4x4 driver, a learner, ignored th

The man was towing a caravan through a narrow gap between two buildings with his SUV when he realised that the caravan was slightly too wide. Frustrated, he hit the accelerator and spun the wheels of his vehicle, succeeding only in wedging the caravan more tightly in the space, as well as breaking off a drainpipe.
