Snake's attempt to attack motorcyclist caught on camera

April 17 (UPI) -- A traveler on a Thailand road captured the moment a motorcyclist was almost struck by a snake that lunged at him as he passed.

The video, filmed from a car traveling in Lampang, shows the vehicle driving behind a man riding a motorcycle down the rural road.

The motorcyclist swerves slightly and kicks up his legs when a snake in the middle of the road lunges toward him.

The man's snake-dodging skills appear to have helped him evade the serpent -- but it is unclear whether the snake was similarly lucky enough to avoid being squished by the car's tires.

"A wild snake almost bit a motorcyclist," the filmer wrote.
