Maybe she misjudged the speed of the approaching vehicle, which is something learner drivers are prone to do, but a teenager in Germany will never forget her latest driving lesson.

The 18-year-old was finding out about the rules of the road when she decided to pull out in front of a convoy of British military vehicles, ignoring the tank's right of way, and her car was subsequently crushed.

Police said the teenage woman was lucky to escape as she was able to climb out of her Toyota unharmed despite her 'David versus Goliath' collision.

Although the repair bill is expected to be around 12,000 Euros.
