Man makes narrow escape after almost colliding with speeding truck; watch chilling video

Careless driving is one of the main reasons behind road accidents and is unfortunately reported time and again with videos of the same being shared on the internet. A similar incident has emerged of a nearly fatal crash between a speeding truck and a two wheeler.

The video was posted on Twitter by Indian Police Service (IPS) officer Dipanshu Kabra.

"Maintain such speed that an accident never happens. Others are also safe, you are too," Mr Kabra wrote in the caption in Hindi.

In the video, a person riding a two wheeler can be seen crossing a street at full speed. Moments later, a massive truck emerges seemingly from nowhere, almost colliding with the rider. However, the man riding the bike escapes the incident unharmed, regardless of a very close call.

Here's the video: 

Mr Kabra posted the video on Thursday and since then it has gathered over 81,000 views and nearly 700 likes. The post drew various responses from users.

"The two wheeler is at fault. When you come in to the main carriage way, you stop look and proceed," wrote one user. "I firmly believe that legal age for driving must be 25 years. It must be allowed when people can understand value of family for themselves and society," said another.

A third user commented, "Sir, the motorcyle person was at fault here. Everyone is in a hurry to go home but they must go carefully." A fourth added, "Why can't we have strict laws, this specific incident could end badly for both the vehicle. Why can't we just cancel the license for one responsible. This isn't less than attempted murder, if no stringent action taken then they will kill someone else some other day."
