Dash cam video captures startling cement truck crash

Dash cam video captured a startling scene in Texas on Tuesday as a cement truck barreled through an intersection and headed straight toward a vehicle in oncoming traffic.

KBTX reports that Texas A&M professor Guan Zhu was in that vehicle and was able to walk away with only minor injuries after the cement truck crashed into his.

"It shows pretty conclusive evidence of what happened," College Station Police Department spokesman Lt. Chuck Fleeger said. "By looking at the video of the accident it seems a lot worse than it ended up."

Zhu told KBTX he installed the camera in his vehicle in case he was in a car accident. It worked. The video cuts out at impact.

The station reports it took hours to clear the scene and the cement truck driver received a traffic ticket for running a red light.
