A wild video captured on a police dashcam shows the moment a drunk driver’s car goes airborne, strikes a power line, before landing in front a police vehicle as the driver miraculously survived.
Michigan police documented the dramatic video of the car flying through the air on the quiet residential street in Lansing, Michigan’s capital, before it tumbled down and smashed to the ground hitting the police car.
The Lansing police department released the bizarre video of the December 3 incident on their Facebook last Wednesday with the reaction, ‘sometimes a drunk driving arrest will land right in front of you… literally.’
The driver, who was not identified, escaped with minor injuries, and was later arrested for driving while under the influence.

The department wrote: ‘This could’ve been a tragic outcome. There is zero excuse to get behind the wheel drunk. Report drunk drivers by calling 911.’
Many reacted to the video and to heed the warning to never drink and drive.
‘Who knew cars could do a cartwheel?’ wrote one person.
Another said: ‘He’s so close to all those front porches, glad no one was seriously hurt.’
Bath Township Police Department added. ‘Don’t drink and drive folks! Glad the driver was ok,’ the Bath Township Police Department posted.
