Vietnam cop hangs onto bus by the windshield wipers as rogue driver tries to ... - Washington Post Apr 13th 2012, 05:29 The driver allegedly refused to show his paperwork and drove off — but not before Phan leaped onto the front, he added. The officer said the bus reached a top speed of about 50 kilometers per hour (31 mph). A YouTube video shows the officer trying to get his footing and dangling precariously from the moving bus as oncoming traffic whizzes past. Phan can be heard yelling, "Call the police!" The driver, Phung Hong Phuong, eventually pulled over after being chased by police and residents. Even with the bus stopped, Phan stood calmly in front of it, still hanging on to the wipers. Phuong was arrested for allegedly acting against public officials, an offense that carries a maximum three-year prison sentence, the officer said. He previously served nearly four years in prison for a fatal traffic accident, and was released in 2010. ____ Online: Video on YouTube: http://bit.ly/IsdX2n Copyright 2012 The Associated Press.
