A drunk motorist who was driving in the wrong lane narrowly avoided being hit by a semi truck whilst fleeing from police officers.

Dashcam footage from Wednesday (4 March) shows the driver traveling northbound in the southbound lane of Interstate 35. As he drove in the wrong direction, several vehicles, including a large truck, had to swerve to avoid a crash.

Officers from Oklahoma Highway Patrol eventually caught up to the individual, who was discovered to be driving at over twice the legal limit, as his blood alcohol content was .21.
