That's what happened to an 18-year-old driving this Toyota Yaris in the Lippe district of Germany on Monday.

According to local police she pulled out in front of a column of British military vehicles travelling on a ring road around the town, often used by British forces stationed nearby to transport tanks and other armoured vehicles.

The driver of the tank, a 24-year-old British serviceman, wasn't able to bring his Challenger 2 tank to a stop in time.

Inevitably, in a battle between 62-tonnes of armour and a one-tonne hatchback, there was only going to be one winner.

Luckily the driver of the car was completely unharmed in the incident, and the tank crew pulled her free.
The car, however, suffered 12,000 euros (£8,600) worth of damage.

Yaris spelled backwards is Siray.

Thankfully this modern tank carries an Earl Grey dispenser and Hugh Grant for these befuddling occasions.
