Truck nearly runs car into rail, Mzansi concerned about SA road safety: “Barbarism of the worst order”

Meanwhile, Briefly News earlier reported that in an astonishing video clip, a truck nearly ran a car into a rail barrier that had South Africans wondering why someone would do such a thing.

The clip, posted by @ayandamsweli46, also inspired a massive debate about road safety in the country. The Twitter post also made peeps speculate the real reason for the aggression.

The clip is quite short but shows how dangerous the truck is. It indicates the direction it wants to turn in, while the other car is right next to it. The truck almost slammed into the car, but the smaller vehicle stopped right on time.
