This Terrifying Dash Cam Footage Will Make Your Heart JUMP!

"This is probably one of the scariest incidents I've had on the road. Because of the wide angle lens on my dash cam, everything looks further away than it actually is. The car jumped in front of me with not more than 12 feet clearance then slammed on the brakes, couldn't jump to the left because of another truck passing me. It was either slam on the brakes or nail the car." - says the man behind the wheel.

The driver narrowly avoids a collision with a lorry and a car because of his quick-thinking mind. If it wasn’t for his skillful driving, he would have suffered a double accident. He was fortunate enough thanks to his quick reaction and reflexes. This video is yet another sad example of reckless driving and its dangerous consequences. Most of the times, drivers' poor maneuvering skills are the direct cause of an accident, along with speeding. Road safety and responsible driving are of the utmost importance and by watching this video, you can clearly see why. Always drive safe and remember that you're not the only participant in traffic, and everyone is jeopardized when you take thoughtless actions.
