Driver survives after car flips off freeway ramp

A driver in Slovakia survived a spectacular crash when his car mounted a ramp on the road’s hard shoulder, surging upwards before flipping and falling back down onto the road.

Slovak police said the 44-year-old driver sustained only minor bruises when his BMW car crashed ahead of the Borik tunnel in northeast Slovakia on Thursday.

Police said the man had tested negative for alcohol and appeared to have fallen asleep at the wheel.

The video was posted on the police’s Facebook page where it has been viewed by nearly 2 million people.
