The Hairy Hands

Drivers and cyclists on the moor road near Postbridge reported a pair of large, hairy hands seizing the handlebars or steering wheel and forcing them off the road. Newspapers took up the story in 1921.

At the table: A lonely moor road, a car that won't steer, and something that wants you off it.
