A young woman has captured the shocking moment a man loses his leg while riding his scooter.
Queensland resident Baleigh Campbell captured the footage on her dashcam while driving home from work last week.
‘I was just on my way home from work, I didn’t actually need to take that street, there was a lot of traffic and I only took it out of luck,’ she told Daily Mail Australia.
‘Then there was just this leg on the road.’
