A Louisiana traffic worker narrowly avoided serious injury recently after a tractor-trailer making a turn crashed into a bucket truck while he was suspended above the road repairing a traffic signal.
The terrifying moment, was captured on dashcam and shared online by Bill Atkinson. It shows the truck clipping the raised bucket, sending the worker flipping upside down. He was saved by a safety harness.
Denham Springs Police say the man suffered only minor injuries and wasn’t taken to hospital.
The Louisiana Department of Transportation and local police have launched a joint investigation to determine whether charges will be filed.
