“How can this happen in broad daylight?”: Car flips over highway median strip

A dashcam has captured the shocking moment a car flipped over a Perth highway median strip.

The incident has left many bewildered as to what caused the car to flip on such a straight stretch of road.

In the footage, a blue sedan can be seen flying through the air after flipping from the right side of Perth’s Roe Freeway.

The car then bounces a number of times as it lands on the other side of the median strip, narrowly avoiding incoming traffic.

On Tuesday, the footage was shared to the Dash Cam Owner Australia Facebook page, where it was revealed that miraculously there were no major injuries.

“Very fortunate that there was no trees or lamp posts where they crashed. It would have been a whole lot worse for those involved if they’re had been,” one viewer commented.

Many viewers were divided as to how the incident was caused.

One viewer suggested a tyre blow out could have been responsible to making the car flip, while others thought that the driver may have lost control of the car after clipping another vehicle during a lane change. 

What do you think is the cause of the incident? Let us know in the comments below.
