Dash cam footage captured the moment a family's car was clipped by an oncoming truck - before spinning out-of-control into a moped rider.

Mother-of-one Chanidapa Thienyam was driving yesterday (August 15) with her family in Samut Prakan Province, Thailand.

Dash cam footage captured the oncoming green pick-up truck style songthaew bus approaching as it veered into her lane.

Moments later the vehicle clipped the bumper of Chanidapa's 4x4 which spun to the right and hit a moped rider - sending her flying into a two bins at the side of the ride.

Chanidapa said: ''I feel sorry for the lady riding the motorcycle. There was nothing I could do to stop from hitting her.

''The approaching minibus van hit the starboard side of my car. This caused it to swerve and the left side of the bumper knocked the motorcyclist into the electricity post and bins.''

The injured motorcyclist was taken to hospital to be treated for minor injuries.

Chanidapa claims the songthaew driver left the scene quickly afterwards instead of staying to deal with any questions about the crash.

She added: ''To the minibus driver I would like to say this. If you so confident that you did nothing wrong, why did you run away leaving your car and passengers behind?''
