VIDEO: Car and semi-truck almost collide outside Kamloops

Kamloops drivers need to be safer than ever on the roads lately.

Driving just west of the city, truck driver Brian Lawson spotted an incident between two vehicles that could have ended very badly. He recorded it on his dashcam to inform the public.

While trying to merge into the right lane of BC Hwy 5, a semi-truck slides to the right, almost sideswiping a vehicle in the process. The merging vehicle had to fall off onto the shoulder of the road to avoid a certain collision.

Though there were no injuries as a result of the incident, the driver appeared to be shaken up, slowing down for several feet.

Drive safe people!
