Video: Truck loaded with canola seeds smashes into Canadian overpass at high speed

April 6, 2018

A truck fully loaded with canola seed smashed into a highway overpass in Canada yesterday (NZT), but luckily no one was hurt.

The incident took place in Quebec near Repentigny, CBC reports, and seemed to have taken place after the driver left the bed of their truck in the raised position.

No one was injured in the crash but the truck and overpass were severely damaged.
