After reporting on months of bizarre Foshan traffic stories, the team at That’s has come to the conclusion that the city must be a traffic cop’s worst nightmare. Since the end of February, Foshan has experienced a demolition derby on a residential street, a T-Rex being driven around town in the back of a pickup truck and, perhaps most memorably, the morning traffic delays caused by two runaway ostriches. We probably aren’t alone in suggesting Foshan would be the perfect setting for a Chinese knock-off of Mad Max.

This week, we bring you another outrageous story (and video!) involving a Foshan motorist who careened through the doors of a clothing shop in some type of soccer-mom-mobile.  

The incident occurred last Wednesday when the out-of-control vehicle blasted through the store’s entranceway and plowed into some shelves. According to reports, an elderly woman narrowly escaped the carnage after she managed to jump out of the car’s path.

According to the news broadcast included below, the driver had to pay the store RMB15,000 in damages.
