VIDEO: a Hungarian motorist almost caused a fatal accident

A serious accident was narrowly averted on the Hungarian M0 motorway.

In a video posted on the Budapest Motorists website, a motorist can be seen driving onto the carriageway from the outside lane straight into the inside lane from behind a lorry.

The problem was that he was crossing the path of a van in the inside lane. Fortunately, the Hungarian driver of the van was alert and brilliantly swerved the steering wheel, almost hitting the centre divider. He then lost control of the dusty, grassy gaps and skidded into a skid and skidded across three lanes of traffic, coming to a stop at the outside barrier.

The driver of the car with the on-board camera quickly followed the motorist, who could easily have caused a huge accident. When he caught up with the driver, he hooted at him, but the driver “just waved sorry”, rtl.hu reports.
