A woman riding a scooter was suddenly yanked off after getting snagged by a steel wire rope strung across the road in southern China.

The CCTV footage was filmed in the city of Hechi in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on August 31.

It was revealed that the steel rope was put up by villagers living up the mountain to hoist items. At the time, they were lifting grass up the slope and had not put any warning or safety signs in place.

The steel wire caught the headlight of the scooter, causing it to flip. The woman suffered injuries to her waist and has since been taken to the hospital for treatment.

Traffic police have determined that the villager responsible for suspending the steel wire is to be held fully accountable for the incident.

8月31日，广西河池都安县澄江镇万茂村，一女子骑摩托车行驶中，被横过公路的钢丝绳挂倒，突然“原地起飞” 。
据了解钢丝绳是住在山上的村民吊物品而架设，当时正在吊草上山并未设置安全提醒标识。钢丝绳挂到摩托车车灯位置导致翻车，该女子腰部受伤已送医院治疗，交警判定由悬挂钢丝的村民负全责。
