A heart-stopping moment when a motorcyclist stopped at a busy intersection see what she thought was a leaf blowing around on the road, but was actually a tiny kitten.

Click here to watch as her helmet cam records the event, including first sight of the little thing on the asphalt where the animal was only a meter or so away from traffic rushing through the intersection.

What might the motorcyclist call her new pet, apart from lucky? Helmut?
