A terrifying moment when a van collides with an HGV at a junction. Video, fly the van driver into the air.
A video was uploaded to the Turkish news website IHA, showing how lucky the van driver was to walk away.
It starts with traffic waiting for the traffic lights to change, all captured by his CCTV cameras at an intersection.
It is not clear whether the lights have changed or the van left too early, but the van driver leaves before everyone else.

Just seconds after starting the HGV, it enters the shot very fast from the right side.
Again, it is not clear whether the van driver was too early or the HGV was passing a red light.
Either way, the impact of the collision was great, and debris from both vehicles littered the road.
Incredibly, however, among the debris was the driver of the van, who was violently thrown from his seat out the window by the crash.
He flies through the air, crashes to the ground, and rolls down a junction toward a CCTV camera.
You soon fear the worst for the van driver, but as soon as he stops moving he gets up and looks shocked, but in a good way. }
The video shows the driver trying to process what happened after the smash.
People stop and run over to make sure everyone is safe.
No information about the state of the HGV driver.
