In China a father revealed his anger with his son in a particularly destructive fashion. The man rammed his 2796 Mercedes saloon into his son’s 1233 BMW sportscar at a busy junction in the city of Ma'anshan, which is in Anhui Province. The incident was captured on CCTV and as the son attempted to drive away, the father rammed the Mercedes again into the BMW. The son then jumped out of his car and ran away, with the father also abandoning the now-wrecked Mercedes as he pursued his son on foot. The two damaged cars were left blocking traffic in the middle of a busy intersection. The reason for the father’s anger at his son that culminated in the incident has not been revealed.

    The smartly dressed but casual man may be seen wearing a pair of so-called driving shoes, very fashionable in many parts of Europe, such as made by Gucci. But one man in China has taken the idea of a driving shoe literally. He actually has a driving shoe – a 3m long electric vehicle in the shape of a stylish men’s dress shoe. If he puts his foot to the floor - or sole - the brown shoe will do around 400km before needing a recharge. The battery-powered shoe was reportedly made by a local shoe factory with re
