A rockfall that occurred on March 2, in Peru, was caught on dashcam crushing two trucks.
Furthermore, the incident took place in San Mateo de Huanchor of the Huarochiri Province, and more specifically, on the 97th kilometer of the Central Highway.
One of the two vehicles can be seen getting flattened by large falling boulders, shortly before they also hit the following one.
An investigation regarding the reasons behind the accident has been launched, although it is suspected that recent heavy rainfall in the area played a major part in the rockfall being triggered.
Concerns have also arisen about the highway’s state, as it is a vital transportation route in the area.
Finally, the drivers of both vehicles miraculously survived the accident.
