Moment SUV fleeing police crashes into cliff face while evading semi-trucks and recklessly passing

  • Films show the car crashing onto a cliff while overtaking other vehicles. 
  • The black SUV narrowly avoided a collision with a truck at one point. 
  • This footage was shot near Osoyoos in British Columbia. It is located west of Canada.
  • Brendan Miller, the man who recorded the accident, thinks the driver was fleeing police.










This is the moment a car crashed head on into a cliff face near Osoyoos in British Columbia, Canada in what is thought to be a police chase. 

A dashcam footage from Saturday November 27 shows the moment when a SUV in black crashes into the cliff that runs alongside the road, while trying to safely weave between traffic. 

As the driver crosses the double line at high speed, the car barely passes oncoming vehicles. 

It narrowly avoided a collision with a truck at one point before pulling away again. 

However, the maneuver fails. After overtaking the white car ahead, it pulls back too quickly onto the right side and then skids. The car collides with the rock face so hard that it leaves the ground, spinning in the air.  

Traffic is blocked both directions by the car that slides to the side. 

The driver who captured the dash cam footage in his rear view mirror, Brendan Miller, had a lucky escape as the crash happened behind him.
