May have looked out of control but had movie set timing

Especially when it went through the cars sitting at the light...

This was in my home town. Thers was a baby on board and, amazingly, no-one was hurt.

Nothing about that video was "staged", it is what it is -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- https://www.news.com.au/national/nor...cda6c1f89c9489

Oh, it's not a truck at all, it is a U-T-E. A truck is a vehicle over 4 ton and that small white vehicle with a tray behind the cabin, for you dumb yanks, is a bloody "utility".

It happened a while ago but, if memory serves me correctly, there was mention of mobile phone distraction.

In the USA, they call it trucks starting from 1/2 ton (1000 pounds) truck and are classified number one through 8 based on the vehicle's gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR). Elsewhere, they call it pickups.
