Terrifying video footage shows the moment a car flew across the barrier of a motorway in Hong Kong into the path of oncoming cars.

The Honda Civic crashes straight through the barrier on Clear Water Bay Road near Lung Wo Tsuen in the New Territories.

It then spins about 180 degrees and skids across to the other side of the road – before it almost hits a truck travelling in the far left lane.

The vehicle then collides with a second car just out of shot, which is pulling out of a Shell petrol station.

有好多人問泥車司機反應(我),其實我已經收左油想過快綫,但係有車喺度,好彩燈柱改變左部車個方向同快綫部車收慢才可以偷右小小避開.........

Incredibly, no one was seriously injured in the crash at about 4.35pm on Saturday afternoon.

Hong Kong police said the 36-year-old driver of the Honda Civic sustained neck pain, while three men in the second car – aged 50, 44 and 36 – suffered chest, leg, shoulder and back pain.

They were taken to United Christian Hospital in Kwun Tong for treatment.

A police spokeswoman said no one had been arrested over the crash and early indications suggested the Honda Civic driver had “somehow lost control” of his vehicle as he travelled along the Kowloon-bound carriageway.

Two maintenance workers narrowly avoided being hit as they carried out road works on the central reservation.
