Terrifying moment car crosses damaged mountain road on makeshift track

This is the terrifying moment a car used a makeshift track to cross a damaged section of a mountain road in northern India.

A landslide damaged part of Salooni-Telka road in the mountainous region of Chamba district on August 22.

Local men gathered to help a few cars which were stranded.

They brought spare electricity poles to make two makeshift tracks across the damaged road.

They then guided the cars across.

A local reporter, who filmed the incident said:

“A small slip would have sent the cars down 50 feet. But in our district, this is a routine occurrence during the rainy season and people are used to taking such risks.”

The local administration is repairing the damaged road and diverted traffic.
