Volvo Truck Driver Saves The Day, Thanks To Amazing Brakes

By Ganesh

More often than not dash cam videos capture horrific road accidents and dangerous incidents. For a change, the latest dash cam video from Russia or some part around, shows a an accident being prevented.

The video captures a scene where a small hatchback driver is saved from getting slammed by a giant trailer truck, thanks to the latter's quick reaction and Volvo's awesome braking and safety system.

The small car gets into the way of the truck in a highway intersection, which could have resulted in a potentially fatal accident had the truck not saved the day.

For something as large and heavy as the truck it stops in an amazingly short distance and could easily pass off for an official advertisement for Volvo Trucks' amazing safety system.

You can watch the incident take place in the video below.
