Heart-stopping footage shows the moment a teenager narrowly missed being mown down by an impatient driver at a Christmas Fayre.

Ethan Smart, 19, was riding his moped when a Mazda careered in front of him as it jumped a queue of traffic caused by the opening of a festive market.

The near miss was captured on Ethan’s helmet camera as he rode through Worcester city centre last Thursday (2/12) afternoon.

More than 10,000 festive revellers descended on the city to enjoy the opening of the annual Victorian Christmas Fayre which caused long tailbacks.

The clip shows Ethan, who was on his way home from college, swerve into the central reservation as the silver car suddenly pulled out into the teenager’s lane.

Ethan’s mum Jennie, 46, of Worcester, said: “My son was on his way home from college when this idiot almost hit him."
