The moment of a horrific accident in New Jersey, in which a 33-ton truck crashed into a house, was recorded by a dashcam inside the vehicle.
According to the New York Post, the truck, which was transporting sand for cement, was traveling at a speed of 80 km/h, with initial assessments indicating an accident that occurred because the driver suddenly fell ill.
The video shows the truck swerving out of lane and onto the opposite road. The vehicle then drives through a garden, snaking past a house and ending up on top of it.

At the time of the accident, one person was in the house and was slightly injured, but the apartment was completely destroyed.
The truck driver, who worked for years at Zeisloft Trucking, was trapped in the vehicle and it took firefighters three hours to extricate him.
"He has no idea what happened. The only thing he knows is that he was trapped in the truck," said the company owner. (A2 Televizion)
