Shocking footage shows the moment a lorry driver cheated death after a tyre blow out caused him to crash through a fence on a busy motorway.<br />The lucky trucker escaped with just minor injuries after his HGV ploughed through a barrier and plunged into a ditch on the M6 on Thursday (January 11). The miracle escape was captured on CCTV, which has been released by the Central Motorway Police Group (CMPG).<br />The lorry can be seen veering across the inside lane onto the hard shoulder before smashing through a fence sending debris across the carriageway. The driver was taken to Walsall Manor Hospital with injuries not thought to be serious following the 2.45pm crash between junctions 6 and 7 near Birmingham. Three of the four lanes were closed for several hours overnight while emergency services worked to remove the wreckage.
