Greenhouse effect

The bizarre sight of a Ford Fiesta with a very precarious load was caught on camera in Rochdale.

I think you are being unfair. I clearly see a piece of polypropylene twine securing it to the rack.

Right, no problem except low bridges and tree limbs.

They also look like they're headed straight for another truck in their lane?

Might be, might also be on the hook being towed backward. Also the white truck may be stopped to load/unload something so the little one swung out around him.

I’m the idiot of the day. Don’t go to the DMV an hour after it opens.

Woman falls from car on M25 filming Snapchat video

A woman fell out of a moving car on the M25 while leaning out of the window to film a video for Snapchat.
She fell from the car into a "live lane" between junction six and the Clacket Lane Services at 01:30 BST, Surrey Police traffic officers tweeted.
The woman was not badly hurt but police said it was lucky "she wasn't seriously injured or killed".
She was treated at the scene by paramedics. No arrests have been made, police added.
In a post on Twitter, the Roads Policing Unit said: "The front seat passenger was hanging out the car whilst filming a Snapchat video along the M25.
She then fell out the car and into a live lane.
"It is only by luck she wasn't seriously injured or killed. #nowords"

No passengers on the upper deck - an opportunity wasted.
