This is the shocking moment a pickup truck goes flying over the street past a moving car after hitting a road bump at speed and destroys at least 10 parked vehicles in its path.

CCTV footage shows the black truck hurtling across the road in Sao Paulo, Brazil, after its driver apparently did not notice the speed bump ahead at noon on 14th August.

As it hits the bump it gets launched three feet up in the air and skids along the street on its front bumper.

A silver sedan travelling in front of it incredibly avoids colliding with the truck as it flies past it and scrapes against several parked cars.

As it disappears off-screen it can be heard coming to a stop with a deafening crunch when it reportedly slammed into a gate.

Parts of several vehicles were scattered across the street, and even power lines were struck.

The pickup reportedly travelled about 100 metres (330 feet) down the road before it crashed to a stop.

The driver of the pickup, Leonardo Couto Luiz, 51, was trapped in the wreckage and rescued by paramedics before being taken to hospital.

His condition has not been disclosed. He was the only person injured.

Authorities are understood to be investigating.
