Truck Flattens Car And Crashes Into House
The truck lost power and rolled backwards down a hill, crushing a car, and bursting through the walls of a house in Utah.
6 September 2013[/align]
A truck carrying 45 tons of sand rolled over the top of a car, completely flattening it, before smashing into a house. The truck driver was trying to make it up a steep road to a golf course in Bountiful, Utah. At first he struggled to get the vehicle into a low gear. Then the brakes failed, sending the vehicle rolling backwards down the hill, taking down power lines and bursting through a wall.

It then crashed into a car on the driveway and smashed into the front of a house, according to Sergeant Andrew Bryson. He said the residents of the property were eating breakfast in another part of the home when the truck hit and were not injured. Bill Bymaster, who owns the house, said: "I've never seen anything like it." He told KUTV: "It's flat. I didn't even feel it, but heard it. Big explosion. I came outside and there was a bunch of smoke." He added: "The car was sold yesterday - that's the funny part."

Bridge Rescue: Walker Trapped As Crossing Opens
The woman clung on for 20 minutes after the railway bridge in Florida suddenly began to rise while she was crossing it.
13 October 2013
skynews.com</center>
A 55-year-old Florida woman was left dangling 22ft (6.7m) in the air when the railway bridge she was crossing opened. Wanda Keating McGowan had been taking part in a charity walk to raise awareness of breast cancer when she walked onto the bridge over Fort Lauderdale's New River.

Witness Philip Glazebrook told NBC6 the bridge sounds a loud alarm before it rises to warn pedestrians, but it was not clear why the woman stayed put. "This bridge is controlled from Tallahassee," he said. "So she's stuck on the bridge and she's going up. The next thing is, she's stuck; straddled like Jesus Christ."

Pictures show the terrified woman wearing a pink T-shirt grasping onto the bridge with both hands as she is waiting to be rescued. Witnesses say she somehow managed to remain calm despite having to wait 20 minutes to be brought down by firefighters with a 24ft (7.3m) ladder.

Other walkers taking part in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer charity walk gave relieved cheers as she returned to the ground. Ms Gowan, who is not thought to have been injured, later praised her rescue team with a message of thanks on Facebook. "To all the firemen and police officers. THANK YOU. YOU SAVED MY LIFE. ALL GOOD THINGS TO YOU," she wrote.
