The incident was recorded on one of the police officer's body cam. 



Further, the video reveals that the ramp of the tow truck was open, due to which the car climbed on the truck and due to the high speed, went into the sky several feet, before crashing on the road. As per reports, the driver survived with serious injuries. The incident is said to be from the state of Georgia in the United States. 


The highway on which the incident occurred is a double lane highway and another car passed the truck comfortably, while the car in question climbed the truck. The black colour sedan toppled multiple times before coming to a halt. The police was on the other side of the highway. Multiple police cars can be seen parked on the other side of the road as well. 


Luckily, no one else was injured in the incident, apart from the driver of the said car. This incident also reveals a major problem on the Indian highways. A lot of accidents occur due to illegally parked heavy vehicles on the road. 


Roadside parked trucks are a major cause of road accidents across India. However, speeding is equally responsible in such a case as the reaction time reduces significantly if such a situation arises.
