So you are on a major speed on a highway and suddenly an amoured truck on the other side of the traffic starts spraying wads of cash, do you throw your mouth open and drive past, or pull over and dare the speeding cars as you run after the cash in the wind? The Texas highway road users seem to think the later is more rational, lol!
A Brinks Armored Truck spilled a bag full of cash on a Texas highway on Friday, slowing traffic as motorists stopped on the road to scoop up money, police said.
"At this time, it appears as if most of the money that was lost by the truck has been picked up by citizens traveling along the roadway," police in Weatherford, west of Fort Worth, said.
There is no indication of how much cash spilled from the truck that was traveling on Interstate 20 to Abilene.
Weatherford Police said it was "substantial" and Brinks was not immediately available for comment. Police told motorists to stay in their cars, warning that looking for cash on a highway can be dangerous.
But video clips on social media purported to be from the scene showed vehicles stopped along the roadway and people trying to track down paper money as it fluttered in the Texas wind.
Americans! Oh Americans!!
