Saw the tail of this news item on the National News tonight and 'assumed' it was in America.

...and 'assumed' it was in America.

Hey, we share the wealth!

I still prefer the US original with the nut who ended up straddling the central barrier and they popped him through the hatch. Obviously the Aussie guy didn't like receiving phone calls when he was in mid trip.

That happened in San Diego...

 

[Gnomey]

Yep.

The new one looks like a light infantry vehicle rather than a tank....

Media pumping up the fear???

 

[Heinz]

Probably Les........its a good hobby for a lot of journalists over here.

I saw it on the news last night I was almost in tears with laughter...

 

[Njaco]

It might've been Down Under but it was an APC with US markings. Lots a poles to fix.

 

[Heinz]

Sure was.

Infact on the news the cameras caught a shot of the cops running as the vehicle chased them

It was so like a cheap thriller film.

Heinz, what would be a good title for the film, though?

 

[Heinz]

Good question

Mobile Madness or
Tracks tremendous trechery

or APC attacks!

 

[Njaco]

In homage to Mel..."Mad Trax"

 

[Heinz]

[lesofprimus]
