Just moments later, a second vehicle went crashing into the sinkhole – falling directly on top of the first, as reported by Need To Know.
The cars behind managed to slow down and move into the other lane.

One of the drivers could be seen stepping out of his vehicle and crawling out of the crater.

Passing vehicles were also redirected to avoid further trouble.
Traffic police said the road will need to undergo repairs before normal operations can resume.
