This is the shocking moment a train smashed into a truck at a level crossing in Brazil.

CCTV footage shows the vehicle manoeuvring onto the tracks before the oncoming locomotive ploughed into it, dragging the truck for several metres.

Authorities said the crash happened in Vassouras, in the Vale do Ipiranga neighbourhood of Rio de Janeiro, on Tuesday, September 23. The truck driver noticed the train but was too late to move out of the way.

Police confirmed the driver and a passenger survived the impact with only minor injuries.

An investigation into the extent of the damage is underway.
