A parked tanker truck has been caught on camera rolling down a steep hill out of control before smashing into a tree, a post and a house.
The driver had reportedly parked the vehicle at the top of the hill and got out, closing the door before walking away.
But moments later, the truck began moving by itself and gathered speed as it careered down the road.
