Dashcam footage shows Chinese driver dodging lorry and bikers in thick fog
This is the moment when a driver first avoids ramming into the back of a lorry and then dodges three motorcyclists driving parallel to each other on an unlit road in thick fog.
The close call was captured by the driver's dash camera on a dark road in Xiong'an, in the Chinese Province of Hebei, on October 24.
The video shows the driver narrowly avoiding a collision in thick fog, thanks to his car's automatic steering adjustments. Visibility was severely reduced, with a nearby large vehicle emitting scattered light, making it difficult to see the road clearly.
The driver was travelling behind a lorry with barely visible taillights, but his electric car, which was apparently set on autopilot, automatically veered to avoid it. Moments later, it dodged a group of motorcyclists as well.
Neither the driver nor the car sustained any damage. The video was posted on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok.
One user called 'Capricorn Guang' commented: "Motorbikes are dangerous." Then user 'Riding a squid' commented: "Speed bump warning but still driving so fast."
And 'Shunq1' commented: "This is really awesome control."
