End of the road for stupid trucker

The stupid trucker who sparked a world-wide hunt when he was filmed dancing while he drove his lorry with his feet has come to the end of the road - after he lost his licence for drink driving.

Driver Iulian Breazu, 24, became an internet sensation when the film of him frantically gyrating around his cab was uploaded onto YouTube.

But authorities in his native Romania have put the brakes on the crazy trucker after he was caught behind the wheel at more than double the drink drive limit.

Now traffic cops in Sibiu have confiscated his licence for 90 days - and ordered him to take a safety test before he gets it back.

"He has clearly had it coming and the road is a safer place without him on it," said one officer.

The dopy driver horrified thousands of road users with his film of himself dancing around his truck cab to wild gypsy music.
