Jay Leno doesn't just bring comedic firepower to any place he shows up ... he's bringing literal firepower, too -- 'cause he rolled around the L.A. streets in a freaking tank!

The comedian was caught by a couple locals driving slowly down a residential street ... with his head popping out the beast. Unclear if its the real deal or a ride tricked out to look like a tank -- but he's steering it like a pro, regardless.

It's outfitted with a massive gun ... though we doubt Jay could actually conquer any territories with it. However, it's certainly intimidating -- even if Leno isn't since he pulled over to have a fun convo with the dudes filming him.

Fiery road rage turned icy fast -- a woman threw a punch at a man and got viciously body-slammed onto the frozen pavement, and it was all caught on camera.

The dispute went down in Toledo, Ohio earlier this month -- a blue sedan screeched to a stop, and a woman jumped out, cussing up a storm at the driver behind her. The chaos escalated when a man climbed out of the other car’s passenger side to confront her.

Looks like the man tried to calm her down ... but as he walked away, the woman threw an unprovoked punch from behind, smacking him in the face. He didn't hold back -- firing a punch of his own before lifting her and slamming her to the ground with a thud.
