TEMPLE, Ga. – This video shows the moment a truck driver escapes as a train slams into his tractor-trailer.

The truck got stuck on the railroad tracks as the train was speeding toward it.

The driver jumped from the truck just as the Norfolk Southern train slammed into it, dragging it across the rails.

Officials said the train crew and the truck driver were not seriously injured.
