Road crashes can be a terrifying experience for the drivers involved as they can happen in an instant. A viral video shows how luck can play a huge part in the outcome of an accident. The
driver used his quick reactions to narrowly avoid a collision on the road, managing to pull over safely. No other cars were also affected by the crash despite the busy road. The whole
accident was even caught on dash cam and has since gone viral on Imgur. The viral video shows a car driving at 65mph on a dual carriageway as it overtakes other vehicles on the road. On the
other side of the road, a lorry appears to crash into a barrier between the two lanes. The back of it then overturns, spilling the contents which appear to be stones and bricks. As they fall
onto the road, the driver filming luckily manages to avoid it at the last second, swerving into the grass on the outside lane. They also narrowly miss a car which had stopped on the hard
shoulder up ahead. The Imgur video, which has had over 350,000 views already, saw users comment on the driver's amazing driving skills. One user remarked: “Can we talk about that
excellent driving though? I'd lose my nerves for sure and drive right into the truck.” Although some noticed a bad driver who thought stopping on the side of a busy road was a good
idea. They noted: “That's why you don't park on the hard shoulder.” One driver didn’t have such a great escape during a crash. They were filmed doing doughnut tricks in the middle
of a junction, much to the confusion of the other drivers. As they tried to drive off, they managed to hit another car in the process. It wasn’t any old car that they ended up crashing into.
