A lorry stalled while on a steep road causing it to hurtle off the road down an embankment.

The vehicle ended up on its side as a result of the impact as it tumbled down the slope into some bushes.

Despite the road being straight, the driver got into a spot of trouble when reaching a sloped section.

He ended up rolling backwards, almost crashing into another lorry which beeped its horn as a warning.

The dramatic moment was caught on camera by the lorry behind as the driver manages to turn the vehicle to avoid a collision.

In the process, the man lost control and ended up crashing on the roadside.

Due to the speed, the lorry completely takes off from the ground as it flies into the embankment.

The man filming shouts and gets out of his lorry to help the driver who was in shock.

Luckily, the driver only suffered a minor injury to his foot, as reported by Need To Know.

At the time, the weather conditions were good and the road was dry.

The accident occurred at around 11am on 22 December, on Lakun Road, Tamaru County, in Malaysia.

A statement was issued by the assistant director of the Tamaru Police District saying that the people involved have not yet reported the case to the police.

Police did however receive a public report that there was an accident yesterday.

A preliminary investigation showed that the trailer was out of control and fell down the slope by the embankment.

After the accident, the driver did not stay at the scene.

He had travelled to a nearby clinic for treatment.
