Do they have a State Lottery over there? If so...

Wow the muppet had absolutely zero awareness of the truck turning into him.

[Funk]

Agree. 100% the fault of the cyclist, where the fk was he going and where was his situational awareness?

[Ray Singh]

Shocked, how no one came to his rescue.

Was it really his fault though chaps? Truck driver is at fault here.

He moved up the inside of an indicating lorry, it's a massive no-no for cyclists.

[BoRED S2upid]

Is he looking straight at the truck and steering slightly away? I'd be steering a lot more to the right and maybe putting on my brakes! Very lucky to be alive.

The Cyclist is in the "cycling lane" which most roads in China have.

The Truck is supposed to check before crossing the cycling lane but this sort of thing happens all the time.

Overloaded and badly maintained trucks do all sorts of crazy things in China.
