MONTREAL, Dec. 6 (UPI) -- Snowy conditions on a Montreal road led to a traffic pile-up involving several cars, two buses, a pickup truck, a police car and a snowplow.

Willem Shepherd filmed the scene from his office window at the Aimia building Monday morning when he saw a bus slowly sliding down a hill toward a group of cars.

Shepherd's video, posted to YouTube, shows the bus plow into the cars, but that proves to be only the start of the action.

A worker's pickup truck crashes into the back of the bus, and moments later a second bus comes sliding down the incline and smashes into the back of a pickup truck.

A police car lazily slides backward into the second bus and the pile-up is topped off when a snowplow forcefully crashes into the police car.

Shepherd said no one was seriously injured in the series of crashes.

"Crazy morning outside the office," he wrote on Facebook.
