CHINA Cyclist began a turning maneuver, crossing the path of a moving truck. He assumed the driver would stop, but unfortunately, the driver had no chance to see him due to the blind spot. The man was struck and fatally crushed under the truck’s wheels. The accident was recorded by the dashcam of an uninvolved vehicle.
