One of the three Ghanaian cars involved in Wanderlust's 30,000 km global expedition narrowly escaped an accident after being crossed by a careless driver in South Africa.

In a video shared on the group's Facebook page, a truck driving ahead of Wanderlust's Toyota Tacoma, while overtaking another car, failed to check the side mirror for the Tacoma, which was also attempting to overtake the truck.

The split-second incident saw the brave Ghanaian driver veering off the road to save the situation.

Intending to travel through 30 countries by road, the three-month journey commenced in Accra in September and has completed the first leg of the trip.
