Jolly ride on wheelchair

A wheelchair user has been taken for a high-speed ride along a US highway after his handlebars became tangled up in the front grille of a lorry. The handle of Ben Carpenter’s wheelchair was scooped up as he passed in front of a lorry leaving a petrol station.

The driver was completely unaware about his new passenger. Motorists called the police and when the truck stopped the driver was completely unharmed and was still attached to the truck.

The police in Michigan state had been told by Ben Carpenter that it was quite a ride, but complained he had spilled his soda. 

The lorry reached 80km/h as he drove down the highway.
After several miles the driver pulled over at the depot of a trucking company where police then told him about the man on his front end.

He refused to believe there was a man in a wheelchair stuck to the front of his truck until he saw it for himself, police said.
