Get this … German police have a nationwide search out for a convicted drug dealer who escaped from jail by hiding in a cardboard box to be taken away for recycling plan to issue an international arrest warrant for him.
A Viersen police spokesman said the 37-year-old Turkish national, whose seven-year prison sentence for drug dealing runs to 2011, had escaped from the Willich prison by hiding in a cardboard box about to be picked up by a recycling truck.
“Shortly after the truck that he riding in got beyond prison walls, he slit open the box and then cut open the truck’s tarpaulin to escape,” said Wolfgang Wiese, Viersen police spokesman. “I’ve never seen anything like this.”
Police have been searching in vain for the fugitive. An international search warrant is being prepared in the event he is not found soon.

Patrons of a local bar persuaded Pat Dykstra, 51, that she was too drunk to drive home. So … taking responsibility she decided to call 911 from her truck to ask for a sheriff to be sent over to follow her home.
She ended her call to the police dispatcher by explaining how dangerous it was for her to be driving while on the phone!
when the deputies eventually caught up with Dykstra her alcohol reading was .14 which is well over the maximum permitted.
Looks like those concerned bar patrons should have taken away her keys! Luckily she didn’t get into or cause an accident.

1. Drive an electric vehicle … or at least a hybrid – maybe like this battery powered truck:

2. Harness raw animal power if you can. Sure your vehicle is horse powered but why not add some dog power too?

3. The last solution to combat the high price of gas is to use good ol’ mother nature to power your car and ride like the wind my friend.

Got any more interesting alternative to gas ideas?
