A car driver smashed into bollards narrowly missing a cyclist before flipping over onto its side in a horror crash.

The white hatchback travelling at speed veers into the centre of the road.

It gives the man on the pedal bike a wide berth on the left hand side.

But there are parked cars on the other side of the road and then a vehicle appears in the opposite direction.

The cyclist luckily stops just in time but the white car smashes into the black bollards at the side of the road.

It somersaults in the air and flies under a tree before ending up upside down on a pathway.

The crash happened in Three Colts Lane, Bethnal Green, east London at about 11:30pm on Saturday (11 May).

One bystander claimed: “They are doing gas and that, jeez.

“That’s crazy.”

One local – named Isaac – said: “Holy s*it.

“The pedestrians and other car passengers got lucky there.”
