(ADW) Two occupants of a car had a lucky escape after a head-on collision with a truck on Monday morning.

It was at an A3 motorway junction in the direction of France that the incident occurred when the truck attempted to make an illegal manoeuvre and cross the road to access a car park on the other side.

The car travelling the opposite way crashed into the truck and became wedged underneath it.

The two injured occupants of the car were treated on the spot before being rushed to hospital in Esch-sur-Alzette.
