Overtaking a huge lorry is a nerve-wracking and potentially lethal challenge for motorists.

Now the tech giant Samsung has unveiled a life-saving solution - a see-through lorry which shows drivers the road ahead.

The incredible Safety Truck has a camera fitted to its front which sends real time footage to a screen on the back of the vehicle.

Samsung claimed its technology would help cut down on road deaths.

"So far Samsung has been able to confirm that the technology works and that this idea can definitely save the lives of many people," a spokesman said.

The new technology is being tested in Argentina, where one person dies on the road every hour.

Although there are no plans to roll them out in the UK, we may soon see a demand for Samsung's technology.

The speed limit for British truck drivers was recently raised, a decision safety campaigners called “short-sighted”.

On single lane roads, the speed limit has been whacked up from 40mph to 50 mph, whilst on dual carriageways lorries can speed along at 60mph rather than 50mph.
