Two car occupants in China had a narrow escape when a mixer truck toppled onto their vehicle, crushing it flat in the process. Despite the car being flattened in the incident, the woman driver and her younger male relative managed to escape relatively unscathed with only minor injuries.

After being rescued from the car the occupants were taken to hospital, but medical checks showed that they had escaped serious injury. The car was less fortunate however with its next journey being to the scrapyard.
