Truck driver Mr. Ma thought he was in trouble when a motorcyclist stopped him and told him that he had crushed a tailing scooter. Traffic camera footage, however, revealed that Mr. Ma almost became a victim of a dexterous con job.
In a video posted to Sina, a Chinese-language news portal, two scooters had followed Mr. Ma’s truck when he turned into a side road. As the large truck slowed down, the two riders on the yellow bike that was positioned to the right side of the truck suddenly dismounted.
In one swift move, the rider slid the yellow scooter under the rear tire of Mr. Ma’s truck, while the female passenger sat down on the pavement and started massaging her leg. The yellow scooter was crushed about a split second later.
As the drama was unfolding, the scooter on the left side of the truck drove up to the driver seat and informed Mr. Ma that he had just hit someone. Mr. Ma got out and approached the female passenger, who was putting on a show of great anguish.
