A woman miraculously survived being run over by a medium-sized truck, crawling out from under the vehicle just seconds after it hit her moped and rolled on top of her, according to Chinese online news outlet The Beijing News.

The traffic accident happened in Yangzhou City in China’s Jiangsu Province on the morning of Aug. 21. Traffic cameras captured the collision at an intersection that morning.

Incredible Near Miss

Recorded footage shows a red, medium sized freight truck pulling into the intersection, driving straight through what is likely a green light. The woman, wearing a white windbreaker, pulls into the intersection ahead of the truck, while she makes a left hand turn.
