Ute gets pulled over for speeding. Driver’s excuse is “I wasn’t watching my speed because I was fighting off a poisonous snake with a knife”.

ETA: That youtube link above is a waste of time - you can see the actual bodycam footage either via the He r ald link above or on the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . It’s a Facebook video so i can’t figure out how to embed it here.
I’m particularly impressed with how the police website article closes by remin din g us that B rown Snakes are protecte d and you shouldn’t kill them.

In Florida the story would be the same, except the driver would be hallucinating an imaginary snake.

As i f S traylia wasn’t dangerous enough with its poisonous stuff, they’re now trying to kill you whilst driving a death machine! It’s like the whole country is Dawin’s accelerated test lab.

This story caused some consternation even in Australia... because most of us live in cities and suburbia and have only ever seen a snake in a zoo.
Meanwhile, I took one of our chickens to town last week because I left the farm ute door open and the radio on in the parking area . She climbed in and hunkered down to lay an egg in the passenger foot well amongst the tie down straps...

In fairness, it did happen in Far North Queensland, which is where you guys keep all the stereotypes you can’t fit into the Outback.
Meanwhile, in New Zealand...
