Phnom Penh Post - Sleepy truck driver takes a $220 dive
Choosing a less than ideal spot to nap on Wednesday, a trucker ended up paying compensation to a boxer who rear-ended his rig with a motorbike.

The final bell rang on the case, however, when the drowsy driver agreed to give $220 to the victim for treatment.
