A driver in Russia has narrowly avoided a shocking crash on a mountain highway after a lorry overturned in
front of him and slid towards his vehicle.
The recent footage, shot on the motorist's dashboard camera, shows the lorry veer out of its lane after
approaching a bend at speed.
As the truck driver attempts to correct the steering, the vehicle tips over onto its side and into the path of
the oncoming car.
Slamming on his breaks, the owner of the car manages to avert a potentially fatal head-on collision.
Both men appear to be unhurt in the accident, which is believed to have taken place on May 9. The driver of
the car, however, appeared more concered about the damage to his black four-wheel-drive than the welfare
of the driver who hit him.
