This is the moment a lorry's tyres explode at high speed sending the vehicle swerving wildly across the road and narrowly avoiding a head-on crash with other oncoming vehicles.
The near-miss took place on the Alushta-Simferopol motorway in Crimea, Ukraine, on Saturday, 2nd August.
Footage filmed from a vehicle travelling behind shows the large lorry in front suddenly lurching to the left as its tyres burst, causing it to cross into oncoming traffic.
A white car approaching from the opposite direction is forced off the road as it swerves onto the verge to avoid a collision.
Debris from the blown tyres can be seen scattering across the motorway as the lorry finally slows and comes to a stop on the far side of the road.
Local reports confirmed that no one was injured in the incident.
