This is the dramatic moment a ferry was shaken and motorcycles knocked over as Super Typhoon Doksuri battered the Philippines on Tuesday.

Footage shows the vehicles toppling as powerful waves slammed into the vessel travelling off Siquijor province on July 25.

The motorcycles had been secured with rope, but several were damaged when they fell over.

The typhoon, known as Egay in the Philippines, battered the country but weakened slightly overnight and is now the equivalent of a Category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale, losing its super typhoon status on July 26.

Forecasters now expect the storm to track northwest towards Taiwan and China, with landfall possible in eastern Guangdong or the Fujian on the Chinese mainland.
