Driver's lucky escape after loose truck wheel smashes into his windscreen

A Ukranian motorist was lucky to escape unharmed after a loose truck wheel smashed into his windshield.

Valentin Hristich was driving around 36km outside of Kiev when the truck ahead of him lost two of its wheels.

One of the wheels bounces into the side of an oncoming car, causing it to skid as the front of the car suffers serious damage.

The same tyre is then thrown into the air, before bouncing once and crashing straight into the front window.

A dashboard camera in the car caught the terrifying smash as it happened, where amazingly none was injured.

It is not known how the truck driver's tyre came loose, or if they driver of the oncoming car sustained serious injury.
