Dashcam Captures Dramatic Scaffold Fall in Buckingham

ADVERTISEMENT

In a startling incident caught on a driver’s dashcam video last week in Buckingham, an aluminium mobile scaffold erected in front of a house on a bustling road collapsed, hurling two men into the path of oncoming traffic.

Miraculously, the workers were not injured, and the scaffold was promptly re-erected. The footage below shows a narrow escape for the men as a car swerves to avoid them, while a third worker in shock rushes to assist.

The incident, occurring next to the Grand Junction pub, has sparked conversations on moble scaffold safety in busy urban areas.
