Heart-stopping moment Edinburgh lorry and car crash on busy roundabout

The nail-biting moment a lorry and car collide on a busy Edinburgh road was captured on dashcam footage.

The incident is understood to have took place at the roundabout on Straiton Junction at around 12pm on Thursday, June 26, 2025.

Footage was seemingly captured by a nearby vehicle as it entered the roundabout. The video shows a flatbed lorry beside an bronze Audi in lanes approaching the Straiton junction.

As the two vehicles enter the intersection, the collision takes place. The Audi can be seen skidding upon impact. It then veers off onto the side of the road after the collision.

Similarly, the truck comes to a halt following the crash, appearing to pause in the middle of the road.

The car filming with its dash cam drives past the orange Audi and both vehicles are gone from the frame.

The video wracked up nearly 4,000 views on YouTube and was posted to social media.
