Watch as a trucker leaps from his rig seconds before it gets decimated by a train

Published:

A motorist captured incredible video of a truck driver’s narrow escape from a train collision in Georgia on Sunday.

The crash happened in Temple, on Sunday evening, according to KCCI. It was captured on cell phone video and shared on Facebook by Elijah Brown.

After a truck driver found himself stuck on a railroad crossing marked “No Trucks” with a Norfolk Southern train barreling down on him, he had no choice but to jump out of his rig seconds before the crash.

The train dragged the truck down the railroad trucks for dozens of feet before coming to a stop.

The truck driver wasn’t injured in the crash. One train worker suffered minor injuries.
