A disabled man was taken for a 50mph ride along a US highway after his wheelchair got jammed in the grille of a lorry.
The back of the 21-year-old man’s wheelchair was scooped up as he passed in front of a lorry leaving a petrol station, Michigan State Police said.
The truck driver drove off, completely unaware that he had a new passenger.
Other motorists raised the alarm and used their mobile phones to call police.
“You are not going to believe this, (but) there is a semi pushing a guy in a wheelchair on Red Arrow Highway,” one caller said.
