On Friday, An elderly man in a motorized scooter was crossing an intersection when he was struck by a semi truck that was making a right turn.
The incident occurred in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, at the intersection of 128th street and 82nd avenue.
According to CTV News in Canada, police say the semi truck went “a bit wide” on the turn. The scooter was completely underneath the trailer at the time of impact.
Doctors say the man will lose both of his legs, but considering that his scooter was completely obliterated — it’s nothing short of a miracle that he’s still alive.
Neither man’s identity has been released, as the investigation is still underway.
