 Next time you're a passenger offer to hop out and get some sweets for the journey - it may well save your life.

These lucky motorists cheated death after their cars were rushed by a petrol station canopy collapsing on them after heavy rain.

The massive BP roof fell in after a biblical downpour in Coalville, Leicestershire on Sunday afternoon.
