We can only imagine what went through this driver’s mind as he braced himself for impact, and what could have very well been his last moment on earth, when he foolishly attempted to overtake several vehicles including a large lorry on a two-lane road, most likely in Russia.

You could call it a moment of clarity when he suddenly came to his senses and perhaps instinctively turned the steering wheel missing the other truck by inches – if not scraping by its sides.

Don’t worry, he’s fine, but he’ll probably need to a fresh set of clean pants after this incident…
