A Vietnamese traffic policeman resorted to
clinging on to the windshield wipers of a moving bus in an attempt to stop a
rogue driver in Ba Vi District outside Hanoi, Vietnam.
According
to media reports, 2nd Lt. Nguyen Manh Phan had ordered the bus driver to stop
the 39-passenger coach. The driver had allegedly been speeding above the
acceptable limit and was also driving in the oncoming lane.
The
driver had initially pulled over and got out of his vehicle to talk to Lt Phan.
However he leapt back into his bus when the officer asked him to produce his
paperwork.
Lt Phan
then jumped on to the bus' windshield wipers and hung on as the driver sped on
for nearly a kilometer.
The
Associated Press reported that one of Lt Phan's fellow police officers caught
the entire incident on camera. The video shows him trying to keep his feet on
as he dangled precariously from the moving bus.
Oncoming
traffic can be seen speeding past and Lt Phan can be heard yelling in
Vietnamese, "Call the police!"
The
driver, Phung Hong Phuong, finally pulled over after being chased by police and
residents. Residents tried to beat Phung up but Lt Phan stopped them.
