This is the moment a US driver narrowly avoids crashing into a car that pulls out in front of him on a freeway near Scottsdale, Arizona.

Dashcam footage from March 25 shows the driver, Josh West, swerving just in time to dodge a car performing a dangerous overtake.

West then skids down the highway as he tries to regain control of his truck.

West told Newsflare, "By some miracle I got out of the whole thing without a scratch, contacting neither the car or the wall.''

This is dashcam footage of a close call I had on the freeway. I was traveling south on the Arizona 101 from Scottsdale toward Mesa. I was in a 2000 GMC Sierra Truck. Someone swerves into my lane to avoid rear ending someone else. I'm able to recover and by some miracle I got out of the whole thing without a scratch, contacting neither the car or the wall. Several seconds later, another accident almost happens to my right between two other cars. This experience has taught me to clean my dashboard and always pay attention to adjacent lanes.
