The incident was filmed by a home CCTV camera in Futog in the city of Novi Sad in the northern Serbian autonomous province of Vojvodina when the unnamed cyclist tried to join a main road.

However, a car approaches in the other direction that appears to be speeding over the limit and the cyclist fails to spot it.

By the time the cyclist is in the middle of the road, the speeding car ventures into the other lane to avoid him but instead they collide.
