A scooter rider in southern India had two consecutive near-misses on January 8 after swerving to avoid a bus and then almost slamming into a tree.

The dramatic security camera footage was captured on Eliyar Padavu road in Mangalore city in the state of Karnataka.

A man escaped two serious accidents as he missed a bus taking a sudden U-turn and then a dodged tree that was in his escape route. The incident occurred on Eliyar Padavu road in Mangalore city in the state of Karnataka. A private bus made a u-turn as there were not many vehicles on the road. The bus driver did not notice the scooter, which was coming at a high speed. The scooter rider also did not slow down and lost control while trying to avoid colliding with the bus. He swerved to the left, and then passed through a small space between a tree and a shop before coming to a stop. The CCTV footage of the incident was captured by a fish processing plant.
