Motorcyclist inches from being crushed after crashing with lorry in Thailand

A lucky motorcyclist survived after he lost control and skidded under a truck.

The shirtless man was speeding around a bend trying to overtake the lorry in Bangkok, central Thailand on July 8.

Dashcam footage shows how the truck driver noticed the reckless biker so he quickly stopped the vehicle in time and prevented crushing him.

Luckily, the motorcyclist managed to roll away from the truck wheels so he only suffered minor scratches from the road.

Onlookers rushed to assist the rider and help to wheel his motorcycle onto the grass verge.

One driver, Aek, said: "Why do some people risk their lives by riding vehicles without awareness and concern?"
