The author of this video is driving in the right lane of the highway, probably in a truck, if the height from his point of view is to be believed. The movement seems to be moving, but something is wrong…
Indeed, passing motorists and truck drivers leave on the opposite side of the road lots of headlight flashesfor example, to warn other road users of approaching danger or a police check.
A motorist who broke the road
It is at this moment that we can see the arrival of a black Mercedes S-Class, which turns quite quickly from the left. Although the traffic is fairly quiet, this motorist seems to be in a hurry overtakes at high speed in the left lane of the freeway. It is quite a banal scene, as it develops without danger to other road users.
But at the same time, it seems that he did not understand the outbursts of other motorists. At the same time, the truck driver, who filmed the scene, also flashed his headlights several times to warn the Mercedes driver: after all, on the same lane as him, we saw the headlights in the distance… Another road user, driving in a black minibus, go up the highway in the opposite direction !
Accident
The driver of the German sedan first sharply bends, and then sharply moves to the central lane to avoid hitting the driver in the wrong direction… Fortunately, the middle lane was free, and the maneuver was successful. creating a serious accident, the result of which could be fatal.
However, it is not known what happened to the driver of the black minibus who rushed to meet him. This one appears to have used his hazard lights, but let’s hope he was well aware of the danger and then pulled into the emergency lane to get back in the right direction…
Oncoming traffic is not a rare phenomenon: only in France it would be approximately thousands of cases every year, that is, an average of three vehicles traveling in the opposite direction every day. The main reasons are advanced age, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or even psychological problems.
