A policewoman in Peru escaped certain death by mere inches after she was hit by an 18-wheeler while on her motorcycle. The near-fatal accident was captured on video by an overhead camera.
Officer Carina Jessica Nalvarrte Tippe was leading a police caravan when she arrived at an intersection, according to the Spanish-language Peruvian website, Sur Titulares. Authorities were transporting a prisoner to Ancón Prison.
As the video shows, Nalvarrte comes to a stop in the intersection and looks to her right. From the left, the truck appears. It slams into her front wheel, sending the policewoman tumbling onto the street where she spins, narrowly missing the truck's tires.
Although she dodged death, Nalvarrte suffered a series of injuries, including a broken clavicle.
She was unconscious for nearly 40 minutes before receiving medical care, the Peruvian site reports.
