Dashcam footage of a 'ghost car' filmed in Cranbourne in Melbourne this week has baffled internet users

There is two cars in front of the vehicle that filmed the encounter, a bright orange Hyundai and a white utility truck.

The right lane gets a green arrow and so the cars proceed to turn before a small grey Astra appears from nowhere.

It runs straight into the truck and is spun around from the force of the collision.

The grey car, which appears to have run a red light, was left facing the wrong direction after the crash

Many commenters admitting to needing to watch the footage a number of times before they could work out what was going on.

'Where the hell did that Astra even come from? I watched the video nearly a dozen times and am still none the wiser!!!,' one person wrote.

'It's a ghost car - out of nowhere!!!', another posted.
