World Touring Car champion, Briton Robert Huff was extremely lucky not to been injured in a major road car crash that happened in Great Britain.
Huff -- the reigning WTCC champion - completely wrecked his Chevrolet Camaro in a most frightening head-on collision.
The WTCC competitor was driving on London Road, in Cambridge when a BMW in the opposite lane suddenly slowed down behind a broken down Peugeot 206.
A driver in a VW Golf that was behind the BMW failed to see the stationary vehicles and went straight into both the BMW and Peugeot. The impact then launched the cars directly into the path of Huff's front-end.
Emergency services had to cut two people free from the wreckage with one passenger suffering a punctured lung and broken ribs. Huff escaped miraculously unscathed.
Talking to Autosport, Huff said that the driver of the Golf was later found to be over the limit.
He added that he was shaken but lucky to be alive.
