A hair-raising moment on the road was captured on a dashcam.
On March 16, the YouTube channel 'Han Moon-cheol TV' uploaded a video titled "If It Had Bounced Up Just A Little, It Could Have Been Catastrophic!"
The clip shows a terrifying near-miss on a highway. One driver almost crashed while swerving to avoid a fallen leaf spring — a heavy truck suspension part — that had come off a vehicle ahead. The metal spring was lying on the fast-moving roadway, and the desperate attempt to dodge it nearly led to a major accident. Viewers argued that authorities should "find whoever dropped the leaf spring." The incident is once again spotlighting how crucial dashcams are on roads where hidden dangers can strike at any time.
Comments included, "Ah... the submitter must be really upset. I'm getting annoyed just watching," and "We need to find the person who dropped that leaf spring."
