How did that get there? Car wedged in van to avoid trailer costs

Police who stopped a white van veering from side to side on a busy road were somewhat surprised when they opened the back doors of the vehicle to find a car wedged in on its side.

The white van men from Kazakhstan decided to save on a trailer cost after snapping up a silver Mazda 626 that they wanted to ship back home.
When the car didn't fit in the white van the proper way up - the two men called a few pals and loaded it in on its side - putting a mattress underneath to stop the doors getting scratched.
But the trip back home for Konstanty Krol, 38, and Cezar Chmielewski, 28, came to an end when police stopped the heavily laden vehicle after seeing it lurching all over the place in Bargthheide, Germany.
A police spokesman said the van and the car were confiscated and the men ordered to return with a proper transporter for the car before they would be allowed to continue the journey.
