Shocking dashcam footage has shown a collision between two cars which ended with one being flipped onto its roof.

The horror crash unfolded on a busy motorway near Point Cook in Melbourne [2], on September 6.

The footage, shared to Dash Cam Owners Australia's Facebook [3], showed vehicles travelling on the motorway just past midnight.

As the traffic flowed down the motorway, one driver was seen driving at speed in the far right lane.

However, as the vehicle drew closer to another car in the neighbouring lane, the driver appeared to lose control.

Sparks flew as the car swiped the neighbouring vehicle and flipped onto its roof.

The vehicle spun as it slid across the road and only stopped after hitting the concrete barrier on the side of the motorway.

The collision caused the other car to spin across three lanes and smash into the concrete barrier, miraculously avoiding all other traffic.

Social media users were shocked at the footage, with many concerned about the occupants in the car that was hit.

'Holy f***ing s***. Can imagine being the car hit they hit some serious g forces in those spins!,' one person wrote.

'How terrifying for the car they hit!,' a second person commented.

'Scary. Felt sorry for the other driver who would of copped a heart attack not seeing it coming,' a third chimed.

A fourth added: 'Feel for the people in the other car who were innocent'.

Others speculated on how the accident happened, claiming it appeared the driver tried to overtake from the right lane.

'Did he try and overtake in the emergency lane?

It's a bit hard to tell in the dark,' one person commented.

'Car in front probably only had his DRLs (Daytime Running Lamps) on so no tail lights on,' another wrote.

'See it way to often with dark cars that just appear right in front of you.

Put you lights on auto, people.

A third added: 'Road rule 101 Keep left unless passing'.
