Police said the crossing guard, a man in his 50s, was struck around 8:20 a.m. while on duty at Cedarview Road and Kennevale Drive in Barrhaven. The intersection is near Mary Honeywell Elementary School.

The driver fled the scene, police said. They're looking for a dark-coloured Ford F-150 pickup truck "believed to be involved" in the incident.

Pollies freaking out about people filling a 20L Jerry can. And yet a #Wankpanzer sucks 80–120L at a time or 2-3x the fuel tank capacity as a typical 4-cyl car. A 4WD with LR tank is 5x. This is a crisis in part caused by those same pollies. #auspol

An Australian man who bought an American pick-up truck the size of a two-storey townhouse because he thought it would make him look tough, has pulled his head in a little after realising he may be spending $500 a week on petrol by the end of the year.

Ben Tanner, who bought the oversized vehicle so he could sit two metres above traffic and feel briefly important, was seen at a local servo staring in mounting horror as the pump ticked past a figure normally associated with emergency plumbing.

Friends say Tanner, who believed his car made other cars look “like little bitch hatchbacks”, was quietly wishing he had a little bitch hatchback right now.

“He used to rev the engine whenever he left the driveway. Now he just sort of rolls down the hill in neutral,” one neighbour said.

But Tanner said getting rid of the ute was not an option. “My RAM 2500 ute is now my entire personality, so I don’t really have an option. I’ll just have to take out a second mortgage I guess,” he said.

The ute, which has a tray the size of a regional airport, has never transported anything heavier than a bag of potting mix.

Surprising that a tactic to drive Australia’s fuel reserves further not on the table is banning the family #Wankpanzer from the roads – or at least limit their use to essential trips. No one needs a dual cab Ranger or RAM for school drop-off or groceries. #auspol #WWIII #Iran #FuelRationing
Guess all the freedom-craving, Libertarian, “Don’t tread on me!” fossil-fuel-guzzling #wankpanzer drivers are feeling mixed emotions when they see ‘woke’ #EV drivers zooming past them on the road without a care in their hair rn.
