A woman has defied death after a dramatic high-speed accident in which her car spun out of control and rolled repeatedly on a busy highway.
The crash, which occurred at 5.30pm Saturday on the Kwinana Freeway near Bibra Like, just south of Perth, was captured by another driver’s dash cam.
Miraculously, no other vehicles were hit in the terrifying incident and no one except the driver was injured.
WA Police are investigating why the terrifying accident happened.
The footage initially shows a red Hyundai that appears to be moving much faster than cars around it as it flies after the other car.
The dramatic single-car accident, which occurred at 5.30pm Saturday on the Kwinana Freeway near Bibra Like, just south of Perth, was captured by another driver’s dash cam.
But before the vehicle can hit the vehicle in front, it veers to the left, over the emergency stop lane and up a concrete gutter.
He then flies along the median and remarkably overtakes the car by filming it on the dashcam while he’s not even on the road.
But then it looks like it hits an object in the dirt, causing it to flip several times and roll on its side.
As the car rolls, it creates a huge cloud of dirt. Pieces of the car are flung up into the air from the cloud.
Remarkably, it appeared to dodge concrete light poles mere inches away.

Eventually the rolling slows down and eventually the car falls onto its roof.
Witnesses said a woman “in her thirties … crawled out of the mutilated wreckage,” 9News reported.
Her head was bleeding but she could talk, “complained of stomach ache.”
The woman was rushed to Royal Perth Hospital.
She was in a serious but stable condition in the hospital’s intensive care unit on Sunday afternoon.
