Jaimie Russell, who witnessed the incident last week, estimated the vehicle was travelling at around 50mph.

He said: "The event is honestly unbelievable but fortunately no one seemed to be seriously hurt. Maybe a sprained ankle.

"Just glad no one fell out as there is no hard shoulder to avoid someone in the road."

He believes the video is proof that Smart Motorways are a bad idea.
