An alarming multi-vehicle collision was captured on a dashcam as a white pickup driver caused a chain of events in an attempt to steer clear of a truck in the right lane. The footage, shared on August 1 by Facebook user Brent Jackson, reassures viewers that fortunately, no injuries were reported in this harrowing crash.
