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.

    A plucky Canadian cyclist underwent a terrifying experience that emulated a famous scene in an Indiana Jones film. The cyclist was riding his bicycle when an articulated truck pulled out in front of him, causing him to lose control and slide underneath the vehicle. As the truck moved away, he was terrified of being run over by the rear axles so grabbed hold of a brake line and was then dragged for around 500m at speeds of up to 50km/h before another driver was able to alert the truck driver.
