In a jaw-dropping incident on a busy motorway in eastern China, a reckless driver caused two lorries to crash spectacularly while attempting to switch lanes. The driver, who was heading toward an exit, narrowly missed it and made a dangerous move that led to a series of unfortunate events. CCTV footage captured the entire scene, showing the aftermath of the crash and the surprising escape of the driver who caused it.

The chaos began when the driver of a white car attempted to change lanes on the G25 Changchun-Shenzhen Expressway near Huzhou, Zhejiang Province. The driver made the risky decision to cut across multiple lanes after missing an exit, setting off a chain reaction. The red lorry, trying to avoid a collision with the white car, swerved uncontrollably and eventually toppled onto the emergency lane. Meanwhile, a blue truck, in its attempt to avoid hitting the car, applied a harsh brake and jackknifed, creating a dangerous situation in the process.

Surprisingly, the driver of the white car continued to drive off without any damage, leaving behind the wreckage without looking back. No injuries were reported, though the situation could have been much worse.
