This dashcam footage shows a distracted Mazda3 driver narrowly avoid rear-ending the camera-equipped vehicle, before slamming into a concrete barrier.
The video shows traffic suddenly slowing ahead. But the driver of the black Mazda seemingly reacts late, just about managing to serve past the vehicle in front (with the uploader of the video commenting: “Luckily, he did an excellent job of avoiding my beloved truck”).
But that means he hits the concrete barrier on the side of the highway instead. Not once, but twice. Ouch…
Still, this could easily have ended up as a multi-car crash. Watch the footage above.
