Dashcam footage has captured the heart-stopping moment a tradie nearly reversed his ute into a brand new Lamborghini.
Mark Trueno was driving his $384,000 high-performance sports car in Melbourne last week when he stopped at a give way sign behind a Toyota Hilux.
But the tradie behind the wheel of the ute suddenly reversed to give himself more space, and came just centimetres from slamming into Mr Trueno’s luxury car.

‘Holy s**t!’ he yelled after the near-miss.
Mr Trueno and the tradie both pulled over a few hundred metres up the road, where they assessed what they thought would be thousands of dollars in damage.
‘I wasn’t certain if it touched [the Lamborghini],’ he said in the video.
Thankfully, the Hilux’s tow bar was higher than the Lamborghini and went over the bonet.
The tradie could be seen calming down a stressed out Mr Trueno.
‘[I was] so relieved,’ he said. ‘This was one of the first times I had driven the car’.
Mr Trueno uploaded dashcam footage of the incident to TikTok, where the clip has been viewed more than 235,000 times
The pair then shook hands and got back into their respective cars before driving away.
Mr Trueno uploaded dashcam footage of the incident to TikTok, where the clip has been viewed more than 235,000 times.
‘Not gonna lie, my heart skipped a beat or two,’ he captioned the video.
