Man Steals Truck to Make Court Hearing on Prior Stolen Vehicle Charge
In the News
I thought our criminals were hard faced , but the US beats us hands down
So what do you do if you need to get to a court hearing over motor theft charges but don't have transport ?
You steal a vehicle of course to get you there , and not any old vehicle, but an ambulance service’s truck !
That's what happened in this case in Oklahoma in the good old USA
He was arrested as he entered the courthouse , although he did arrive on time
Next time he needs to take an Uber , failing that a bus , but only as a passenger

Not surpriding. There was one who drove himself to the court with an expired driver's license or something like it...
Here's the video:
In America almost anyone knows how to drive, even kids:
The girl who drove herself learned a skill very useful in life that many in England and other countries sadly don't know. Plus, it can be fun to drive (if it's not monotonous).
Metroline bus drivers in England only need to have a full driver's license and then they can be trained from there on (and Right to Work, of course).

I have a driver's license, but driving a bus would feel too excessive for me, to be honest.
