Oblivious Trucker Drags Car 100 yards Before Cops Stop Him
Raw video:Dramatic footage has emerged of a truck piling into a car and carrying it 100m down a Sydney road - with the truckie completely unaware.

Police had stopped at a minor traffic incident involving two cars and a truck at Centenary Drive Northbound, just after the Hume Hwy overpass, around 9.30pm.
A witness who was filming the incident explains: “The first car was changing a tyre in the centre lane. It was quiet a dangerous position.
“As I was filming I turned around to see a large semi-trailer only several feet from me, pushing a car at right angles down the only lane that was still operating.
“Police were quick to notice the situation yelling out to the driver and having to chase it down to get it to stop.
“In all the truck pushed the car almost 100m down Centenary Drive before it stopped. “The driver was questioned for some time before being released and the driver of the car was examined by Ambulance Officers on scene.”
Footage shows the truck come past, pursued by the frantic officers on foot - and then reveals the car and its shocked occupant.
It is believed there were no serious injuries. Police are investigating.
