Another incident that involves a bulldozer running wild in a street in north China has been reported, this time with the driver stopping only because he was shot dead by the police.
Earlier this week, a video featuring a bulldozer on a rampage went viral among Chinese netizens, according to the Shanghaiist. The video shows a bulldozer running wildly in circles, hitting other vehicles, killing one unfortunate victim and injuring 20 others more.

In the video, it is seen that the bulldozer, an eight-meter monster that weighs about 16 tons, was waiting in an intersection while occupying a lot of road space. A man went out from the car behind the bulldozer and approached its driver.
Enraged, the bulldozer’s driver chased the man, then went on a rampage afterward. The video shows the bulldozer recklessly crashing into cars and people, as well as a police car that responded to the situation. The bulldozer allegedly killed a person, who was riding an electric bicycle.
Reaching a bridge after a chase, the bulldozer slammed into a bus loaded with people. Before the bulldozer could topple the bus by hitting it another time, a police sniper was reportedly able to shoot its driver dead. This ended the rampage with had lasted for about 27 minutes.
It turns out that the incident happened on September 3 last year in Shuozhou city in Shanxi province, according to Asia One. Here’s the video:
Bulldozing
While the idea of a bulldozer rampaging along a street in China sounds terrifying, having multiple bulldozers slamming against each other might sound terrifyingly hilarious.
It was reported earlier in April that bulldozers belonging to rival construction firms clashed against each other in broad daylight in a street in Hebei province. While fights between construction companies and residents are common, disputes between rival construction companies seldom occur, most especially the kind that involves bulldozers.
