Gauteng Driver cheats death after slamming into the back of a stationary truck. 

Reports indicate that the driver of a light motor vehicle lost control on a straight, slamming into the back of a truck.

When medics arrived on scene, they found the driver, also the only occupant in the vehicle heavily entrapped under the rear of the truck.

Rescue crews battled for three hours using hydraulic tools to free the critically injured man, while advanced life support paramedics worked to stabilise him.

Once freed from the wreckage, the man was rushed through to hospital having suffered poly-traumatic injuries.
