The driver of a truck that dragged a car down a Californian highway for more than a kilometre said he was unaware the car was wedged under his vehicle.
Passer-by Brian Steimke captured video of the truck barrelling down the San Bernardino County highway with the crumpled car lodged under the rear of the semi trailer.
The truck was hauling two trailers of carrots when it changed lanes and struck the car, the California Highway Patrol said.
The helpless driver can be seen waving at the truck driver’s side mirror, appearing to be trying to get his attention.
A highway patrol officer said the car was dragged for more than a kilometre before the truck finally stopped, when another motorist pulled up in front of it.
Mr Steimke approached the truck driver and ask why he travelled so far without stopping.
“I didn’t know it,” the truck driver said.
Mr Steimke replied: “What do you mean you didn’t know it, dude? He’s on your truck.
“You need to get out of your truck, right now. He’s literally on your truck.”
