Semi-trailer pushes car down Sydney highway in horror incident
Shocking footage shows the moment a huge B-double truck pushes an Uber car down a busy Sydney highway after an accident in which no one was miraculously injured.
Inside the car, a newlywed couple were travelling to Sydney airport as they were at the conclusion of their honeymoon.
Somehow the Uber ended up sideways in front of a huge truck and was pushed down the Princes Highway at Sydenham for 30 metres.
The car was then pushed into a side street, near a power pole.
Witness Niall Little saw the shocking incident after he was closing his workshop when he heard tyre screeches and started filming it on his phone.
He told Channel Seven, “It seems like the car was changing lanes and just the front of the truck clipped the car, and just basically locked in the front and kept on pushing.”
The Uber driver and two passengers all escaped with just bruises and were assisted by witnesses after the terrifying ordeal.
Sam Broome told Seven she was about turn on to the highway when she saw the events unfolding.
“They were pretty upset, pretty shaken, pretty shocked,” she said.
The day after the incident, police went to the truck company's Warwick Farm headquarters to interview the driver and management.
