Default Lorry pushes car down the A1

This is absolutely amazing and shocking at the same time. The driver is pushing a car down the A1 and doesn't even know the cars there!

thats mad!!! how the hell did the Clio get there in the first place, just wondering how the driver didn't feel the knock as the car hit the front, as for seeing it, I guess the last place you look, when your 'careering' (just love the way news reports it lol) is right infront of you.

I love the fact the clio has the brakes on.

brakes don't slow you down when your wheels aren't turning...

Quality!!! ive driven trucks for ages being a truck techy, but this has gotta be a first, and i thoroughly expect the arclid driver to get anally invaded by vosa, police etc!!! Even though i reckon the dozy bint stopped directly infront of the truck as he pulled off. OR it could be a very ellaborate stunt.

or the Clio driver tried to move lanes just as he was at her rear bumper in the middle lane, and gently spun it onto his bumper.

If I were the person in the car I'd be playing the lottery on Saturday!

I saw something similar happen on the M25 as the car driver cut it a bit too close to pull in in front of the lorry. It was dry that day and the screeching and tyre smoke soon let everyone know what was going on - I suppose as it was wet that didn't happen but still, the plank in the lorry should have noticed something.

Glad everyone walked away from it.
