Here is a tow truck with a difference. How do you tow a car away quickly, on some of the most grid locked roads in the world? Designers in China have come up with an innovative solution. They took a powerful Honda Goldwing motorbike and fitted it with a hydraulic towing arm.


    The designers say that the bikes can get through busy traffic much quicker than conventional trucks and can thus clear the roads faster than before. Once at a breakdown, the hydraulic arms lowers a two-wheel dolly and the front wheels of the car are rolled up onto it. The Goldwing can then pull the car away safely.
