China: Unattended Tricycle Moved By Gusty Winds And Parked Perfectly In Taiyuan, Shanxi

Taiyuan, located in northern China's Shanxi Province, witnessed a peculiar incident on the evening of November 25, 2024. A parked SF Express tricycle, left unattended as its driver made a delivery, became the unexpected subject of a strong wind's force. The gusts propelled the tricycle down the street, narrowly missing a collision with a nearby white truck. The wind then pushed the vehicle into a turn, steering it directly into the tight space between two parked cars. Remarkably, the tricycle came to a stop in the narrow gap without causing any damage, surprising bystanders.
