This is the terrifying moment a metal sheet came loose and flew into a car on a motorway in Thailand.<br /> <br />The sheet was being used to cover bottles of water when its lock snapped - sending it hurtling through their air.<br /> <br />Dashcam footage shows how it smashed the windscreen of the car behind in Samut Sakhon, central Thailand on Tuesday (September 17).<br /> <br />Samphat Yangrobroo, 46, slammed the brakes and hid under the dashboard following the scary impact.<br /> <br />He pulled over and left the car for a few moments and found the 3.2ft-long metal cover that shattered his windscreen lying on the ground nearby.<br /> <br />He said: "Everything happened so quickly. At first I thought it was just a piece of paper. I almost rammed into the traffic island to dodge it. It was lucky that I could stop quickly without causing a crash with the other cars behind.''<br /> <br />Samphat said he collected the debris then chased the truck using his damaged car to tell the confused driver about the accident.<br /> <br />He said the delivery driver apologised and explained that the metal cover was usually locked on the vehicle frames but it appeared to have been broken that day.<br /> <br />The truck driver's insurance company will pay for the damages to the car, which was sent to a nearby garage for repairs.
