Amazingly, the driver rolled out of the wreckage and seemed unharmed, though he went to the hospital for a check-up.

Ice Cream, Anyone?
Some rather bizarre van stories surfaced this week.

YouTube And The Road: A Dangerous Combo
We’ve talked before about drivers without insurance or proper documentation.
But here’s another story to add to the mix.
On the A50 in Derbyshire, a van driver caught the attention of the police—not for speeding, but for doing the opposite.
He was driving at 40 mph on a road with a 70 mph limit.
Why?
He was watching YouTube on his tablet while driving.
After the police stopped him, he tried to give false details, but a quick check revealed he lacked both insurance and a licence.
Needless to say, he didn’t finish watching that video.
