THIS is the terrifying moment a mum and her three-month-old baby were almost crushed by a one-tonne runaway trailer.
Dramatic CCTV footage filmed from a house on the opposite corner of the junction shows a cloud of dust as the trailer hits the pavement. The clip shows that right after the trailer comes loose, the van's driver runs towards Eleanor and her son to make sure they are not hurt.The single mum escaped with only minor injuries, including a stiff neck, shoulders and arms - but baby River was luckily unharmed.She said: "It was a mum's worst nightmare.
"The worst part was that as it came towards us, I wasn't sure if it was going to bounce up off the curb and come crashing down on top of us."All I could think about was keeping hold of the buggy because I didn't want my baby to fall out."Luckily, River wasn't hurt - I don't think he even had any idea what had happened, he was just in his pram smiling up at me."
