Truck driver doesn't see car stuck to it's front bumper!!

Why doesn't he honk or something?

I would've been shitting my pants if I was in that car.

How did he even manage to get under there anyways without the truck driver noticing?

why arent there sparks n shit?

uh oh, better get Maaco

Well now, that's fucking awesome.

the car seems to be in pretty good shape. I don't think it was a high speed collision.

I think the car was welded onto the front of the truck as a prank or something.

The person in the car must be shitting their pants lol

No actual footage of it, but the same thing happened to someone in a wheelchair... got pushed along the road by a big rig. :p

hmmm, dont know what to believe. if it was real HOLY FUCK HE'S NOT DEAD YET

that is some fucked up situation lol

wow wtf
that lorry's traveling pretty fast too.

^ Stop pretending to be British. :lol

it *could* be staged?? Or maybe the people jumped out of the car? hahahaha

not necessarily. I'm pretty sure the brake lights can be turned on by a programmed microcontroller.

Probe As Video Shows Lorry Shunt Car At 60mph
3:41pm UK, Thursday March 18, 2010

Damien Pearse, Sky News Online

Police have reopened an investigation after amazing footage emerged of a lorry careering at 60mph along a motorway with a car trapped sideways on its front bumper.
The video shows a trucker thundering along the A1(M) near Wetherby, West Yorkshire, seemingly oblivious to the car under its cab.

The lorry is filmed by another motorist for several seconds, with sparks flying from the blue Renault Clio.

The haulage company - Arclid Transport - has confirmed that the video is not a hoax and that the lady driver in the Clio "got out and walked away".

An incident did happen along that stretch of the motorway and we opened an investigation and reported the matter to the police. Having seen the video we have reopened that investigation.

Spokesman for Arclid Transport

A spokesman for the company said an investigation had been launched into the "accident" and that police had been informed.

West Yorkshire Police said officers were aware of the video at the time but in the wake of new evidence they are reinvestigating the collision.

A spokeman said: "The matter has today been passed to our major collision inquiry team and inquiries are ongoing."

In the video the lorry is first seen travelling towards the camera.

The lorry motors on, oblivious to the car under the cab

A passenger in the car with the camera screams: "He hasn't seen it" - as the truck motors past with the car still locked onto the front.

An Arclid spokesman told Sky News Online: "An incident did happen along that stretch of the motorway and we opened an investigation and reported the matter to the police.

"Having seen the video we have reopened that investigation."

The spokesman added: "As far as I'm aware the lady driver got out of the car and walked away unharmed."

Mystery surrounds how the Renault Clio got there and why the lorry driver failed to notice.

unbelieveable... something right out of a bourne supremacy movie imo.

Thanks for the update!
