SHOCKING dashcam footage has captured the moment workers fell off scaffolding in Buckingham.
The incident was caught on camera at 1pm on Wednesday, March 6, outside a takeaway on the High Street.
In the video, two workmen are seen hanging onto the scaffolding as it topples over into the road.
The scaffolding then lands on a passing car.
The workmen appeared to be fine and got up from the floor straight away.
In the video, the scaffolding wheel was seen balancing on a round extension lead box.
The driver of the car with the dash cam Thomas Ambrose told ITV news: “I was just driving along the road like I do every day when I noticed the scaffolding falling into the road.
“I was shocked when I then saw the people also fall into the road, but thankful that it didn’t happen two seconds later or they would have fallen under my car.
“The two guys seemed okay and got up right away.
“They then put the scaffolding back up.”
