More outrageous road news
In some more unbelievable news from our roads, Briefly News previously reported that a traffic warden has been taught a lesson of his life by a motorist and many can't stop laughing over the incident.
In a video making the rounds on social media, the officer got into the man's car despite the fact that the latter committed no offence. The motorist decided to speed off and the officer called on Jesus and appealed to the driver to let him alight.
The driver obliged him and the officer immediately got out of the vehicle.
Viewers are tickled
