Road worker 'flies' after being knocked by car - and survives!
"It's truly a miracle that this man survived this terrifying incident," says Stacey Norman.
Guys, it's dangerous out there on these South African streets, and this video kind of shook me a bit after seeing it. Albeit tragic, we need to create awareness about road safety.
A disturbing video popped up on my timeline showing a road worker being knocked at high speed on the N2 near Grabouw in the Western Cape, sending him flying in the air.

TimesLive reports that the worker has been identified as Xolele Phindela. The green Avanza, which can be seen in the clip, moved over to the oncoming lane and slammed into him.
A witness who chatted to the Netwerk24 team said that it was impossible for the driver not to see the victim as he was dressed in bright colours and even a neon bib.

While a police spokesperson has said that an investigation into the reckless and negligent driving is underway, I caution you all to please be safe out there. I love you all too much and don't want to lose any of you.
