A motorist miraculously survived after a transport truck flattened his car in southern China.
The terrifying video, filmed in the county of Xiangtan in Hunan Province on May 16, shows a truck transporting coal suddenly tipping over onto a car waiting for the traffic lights. The coal loaded on the truck then scattered onto the road, burying the car.
In another video, a digger and a crane were seen attempting to clear the site. The trapped car driver was freed by other motorists driving past and was sent to hospital for treatment.
According to reports, the truck driver was rushing to go through the section of the road before the traffic light turned red so he did not slow down until he was only around ten-metres away from the white car.
The truck then lost control and flipped over after the driver had emergency braked and changed the direction to try to avoid the car.
Although the back of the car was completely flattened, the car driver survived.
