Dog takes truck for a joy ride.
Police say Charles McCowan parked his pickup truck in front of an Azusa mini-mart Wednesday, leaving his 80-pound Boxer named Max in the passenger seat. When he came out, the truck and Max were gone. McCowan called police, assuming it had been stolen. When officers arrived, they found the truck across the street in a fast-food parking lot, but had no idea how it got there.

In security video the truck can be seen rolling backward out of the store lot across the street, threading its way through five lanes of traffic. Police say after McCowan left the truck, Max knocked the vehicle out of gear and sent it rolling backward. Max's driving skills are better than your average dog. Both Max and the truck emerged without a scratch.
Speeding drivers are being told off by school children
Speeding motorists in Norfolk are being shamed into slowing down - by getting a ticking off from the young children their action could endanger.Norfolk police unveiled the unusual weapon aimed at making motorists cut their speed, at the top of Barrett Street in Norwich on Monday.
The road, which has recently changed from 40mph to 30mph, is near Tuckswood Primary School, and children and staff there have become so fed up with motorists not taking notice of the speed limit signs, they decided to join police on a mission to stop speeding motorists in their tracks. Anyone caught speeding was then given a choice - to face a maximum penalty £60 fine and three points off their license or have a lecture from local schoolchildren. And while the majority took what they thought would be the easier option, being told off by the schoolchildren, many were left red-faced and embarrassed after the children pleaded with them to curb their speed.
Speaking about the scheme, Pc Leo Blyth said: “Having the children tell the motorists off actually has more of an impact than if it was a police officer. A lot of the motorists have said how ashamed they felt afterwards and the message has really hit home to them.”
