THIS shocking footage shows the horrifying moment two lorries crash head-on after one of the drivers travels on the wrong side of road.
Mariusz Korkosz was jailed for 20 weeks at Newport Magistrates’ Court this week after he admitted ploughing into Gary Rees.
The crash happened on the B4251 between Oakdale and Crumlin in Caerphilly county on July 4.
The defendant argued he had suffered a coughing fit but that claim was dismissed by the court.
