Runaway tractor near Toronto

http://toronto.ctv.ca/servlet/an/loc...TorontoNewHome

A tractor was allowed to go on a rampage of destruction in a Wal-Mart parking lot in Richmond Hill.

Wow...just wow.

Well, since Toronto is the center of the Canadian universe, the mods here felt they didn't need a Toronto section, since Canada is where most Toronto posters post...
TORONTO=CANADA
everywhere else is just a colony.

No one was able to stop it except for one brave light pole.
It managed to take out two cars and a tree in the process.
It was funny in a way watching the construction worker trying to ge to the tractor. He wasn't even running and whenever it got too far away, he just gave up.
The tractor was going in a circle, not too hard to catch.

That would have been much cooler with a bigger tractor and more cars in the parking lot.

Take it easy on the inferiority complex there. Don't make stuff up and say that's how we think.
