The horrifying dashcam footage, filmed from the car in front of the offending Mitsubishi Adventure, shows the the two vehicles collide on the Marcos highway flyover in Baguio City in the Philippines.
The video begins with the car’s passengers happily listening to the radio as they drive down the two-way street when a car to the left of them tries to overtake them, despite the double yellow lines, suddenly a motorbike appears on that side of the road and smashes into the Mitsubishi.
