A van driver got the shock of his life when the road suddenly caved in beneath him.

Experts said the cave-in was due to the local geology of the area.

I hope they took his van out before they filled it.  Still, it would take less soil, road base and bitumen if they left it in.  They could call it a speed hump.......
