Australian Trucker Fights Off Venomous Snake While Driving

An Australian trucker is okay after fighting with a deadly snake on a busy highway.

Police in Queensland say they stopped the 27-year-old for speeding, but when they approached, he informed them that he just survived an animal attack.

The trucker explained that while driving, an eastern brown snake appeared and began to wrap itself around him, forcing the man to use his seatbelt and a knife to fend it off.

The reptile, which is the second deadliest in the world among land snakes, bit the chair between his legs several times before cops pulled the truck over.

Cab footage from the truck showed the entire ordeal. He managed to avoid getting bitten, but there's no word on what happened to the snake.
