A motorcycle accidentally bumped the rear end of a truck. As seen in the dashcam, the motorcycle slipped through the back-side end of the truck. Unfortunately, there were no traffic enforcer posted around the area.

In the video, it is seen that the motorcycle driver tried to pass by a space between the truck and pavement. Unfortunately, he didn’t manage to balance properly resulting to it falling sideways and was nearly run over.

Motorists immediately ran to the motorcycle driver to make sure he’s okay.

It is recorded by the World Health Organization (WHO) that around 1.25 million people die every year due to road crashes. Most victims come from middle class families and are around 15-29 years old. According to the latest available data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA), 10,012 people died due to road crashes in 2015 – a 45.76% increase from 6,869 deaths recorded in 2006.

I was unclear what happened after the accident as the video taker speeds past the halted truck.
