Following the incident Goulding shared images on Instagram and wrote: “I’m the one in the car checking if this guy was OK – craziest thing I’ve ever seen on the road.
“Everyone was driving past but my driver Guy stopped. Driver safe and look out for others everyone!!”
The Starry Eyed singer later added: “On a side note, I can’t believe the first instinct of the other drivers who got out was to instantly start filming on their phones and shout abuse at the poor shocked driver, not even checking the other driver was OK.”
Loud screeching can be heard from the Volkswagen GTI in footage filmed by a passing motorist and later shared on social media.
After the truck finally stops, one driver can be heard shouting: “What the f*ck are you doing man?”
