A driver is fortunate to be alive after a train collided with his car. 

The incident occurred early this morning, October 9, at PWD railway crossing, Ikeja,  Lagos. 

The 55-year-old man was helped out of the car by bystanders. He did not seem to have any injury as he walked away on his own. 
 

According to the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) the accident involved a train heading towards Agege and a Honda car with registration number EKY 902 JT, which sustained extensive damage. 

LASTMA said its officials, alongside security personnel, rescued the motorist and cleared the damaged vehicle from the tracks, enabling the train to continue its journey. 

Despite the clearance, traffic congestion remained around the PWD area after the incident.
