A male driver of a rental Chevrolet Cruze was involved in what can only be described as a nightmare scenario for any road user when an 18-wheeler truck loaded with cardboard boxes flipped on its side and landed on top of the compact sedan.

The accident took place in the northbound lanes of the Dallas North Tollway in Texas in the late morning hours of Thursday.

The large rig also knocked over the concrete center barrier and hit another vehicle, a black Volkswagen Touareg, hurling it over the median and onto the other side of the road.

Being that no one was hurt, we can honestly say the funniest part of this video showing a Russian truck driver that forgot to retract the crane sticking up from the back isn't that he or she crashed into a bridge, but the aftermath as the vehicle snapped in half. Nice work indeed.

Just imagine trying to explain this incident to your boss… You can check out the video of the crash and discover where that Modern Talking tape you lost back in the 1990s ended up right after the jump.

We've shown you our fair share of road-rage incidents, most of which involve at least some drama in the form of verbal abuse or in rarer cases, a physical fist fight.

However, every once in a while, these episodes can escalate into something far more ugly and dangerous not only for those directly involved, but also for other drivers as it happened in Fall River, Massachusetts, this past Sunday.

According to the incident report, truck driver Luis Cotto said that in the early morning hours of Sunday, a black four-door Infiniti cut him off and then slowed down in front of him.

Understandably, in a collision between a motorcycle and a larger vehicle, the biker is the one who gets the raw end of the deal.

However, once in a while, motorcyclists manage to get out unscathed from a potentially deadly situation, like this scooter driver in Asia (if any of our readers now where it took place, add a comment below) who was involved in a crash with a light truck that went through a yellow light.

Dumps trucks ain't our cup of tea but there's always an exception to the rule, and this is it: a Kenworth T800 with a turbo setup that's good for more than 1,000 horses at the tires!

According to the folks over at Bangshift, who uploaded the following video on their YouTube channel, the Kenworth dump truck runs the quarter mile in 14.1 seconds.

Agreed; that's not something to brag about at a local supercar meet, but keep in mind that we're talking about a dump truck here… Just to get an idea of how fast that is for a vehicle of this type and weight, a few months back, British magazine Autoexpress clocked the BMW 1 Series M Coupe running the 1/4 mile in 13.9 seconds.

Usually, when an insensitive driver double-parks on the road blocking the way to other vehicles, all it takes is a call to the police to get things sorted out. But there comes a time when frustrated drivers take matters into their own hands…

Which is what happened in Exarcheia, a neighborhood in downtown Athens, Greece, when the owner of what looks like a fairly new Audi A3 Sportback parked in front of a couple of large metal trash bins partially blocking the road.

While most passenger cars were able to make it through, a city bus that was making its routine trek around town couldn't fit. The bus driver along with the other drivers that were piling up behind kept honking again and again but to no avail; the owner of the Audi was nowhere to be seen.

Perhaps this large truck in the frozen Russian city of Vladimir got tired of waiting on the side of the road for its driver to return and decided to stretch out a bit in reverse, or maybe something went wrong. Who knows what happened, but we sure wouldn't want to have been in one of the cars behind it.

Take a look at the footage from a nearby surveillance camera in the video that follows below.

There's a grim reason why Bolivia's North Yungas road is more often referred to as the "Death Road": it has been estimated that every year between 200 to 300 travelers die on the 70 kilometer (about 43 miles) stretch of road leading from La Paz to Coroico, with a fatal accident occurring approximately every two weeks.

And sadly, the Death Road claimed another victim last week when a double decker bus plunged some 50 meters down a cliff after the road collapsed, possibly due to the heavy rainfall, according to the police report.

The victim was the driver, who wisely attempted to make the dangerous passing only after all 50 passengers had cleared the double-decker bus. The terrifying incident was captured on film by one of the travelers, but be warned, it's not for the faint hearted.

The city of Melbourne is one of the best cities to live in, not only in Australia but in the world. Nevertheless, it can also drive you crazy with its variable weather conditions; one minute it's nice and warm and the other you get pounded by rain or even severe hail storms, as happened on Christmas day this year.

In fact, aside from the huge hailstones that damaged around 10,000 vehicles, the ferocious Christmas Day storms that hit Melbourne and northwest Victoria sparked some heavy flash flooding in certain areas.

But the flooded roads were no match for some Aussie firefighters who didn’t even blink an eye when their Isuzu truck plunged into very deep waters of what looks like a street somewhere in the Melbourne suburb of Eltham. Still here? Just go and watch the video we've got after the break.

We have seen various types of vehicles drifting on and off the road but we can't honestly say that we ever remember seeing something like this before.

We will assume that the tanker truck had offloaded its oil before attempting this idiotic drift display – we doubt that the driver would have been able to pull it off if the tank was full.

The only question that remains to be answered is who the biggest fool is: the driver drifting the lorries tank or the man following closely behind? Hop over the jump to watch the video for yourself.

Some of you may remember a video of a 1:4 scale R/C model truck pulling a Nissan SUV that we showed you back in April. However, at the time, we didn't know anything about the build. As it turns out, there is so much more than meets the eye with this amazing remote-controlled lorry.

First of all, it isn’t just another of those expensive toys you can buy online but a custom creation made by an Italian named Bordin Luca.

It all began when Luca saw a man driving a model truck on an online video. Being an avid fan of American trucks and especially the Peterbilt 359, Luca decided to build one for himself. And as so often happens in these stories, one thing lead to another and it became a larger than life project.
