Dash camera footage has emerged showing an SUV flip and roll across several lanes of the Pacific Motorway.
The video, posted to social media over the weekend, shows a white Nissan Tiida abruptly veer left into a silver Nissan X-Trail just south of the Gateway Motorway exit on the M1 at Eight Mile Plains south of Brisbane just after 1pm on Friday.

The X-Trail, which was travelling in the left northbound lane, flipped twice before coming to a rest on its side, in the far right lane, facing the direction of traffic.
The Tiida smashed into the left guard rail before coming to a stop.
Remarkably, no other cars were impacted, despite debris being scattered across the road.
At least four drivers pulled over to render assistance.
A 73-year-old Surfers Paradise woman, who was driving the X-Trail, suffered minor injuries and was taken to Princess Alexandra Hospital.

The driver of the Tiida, a 41-year-old man from Morningside, also suffered minor injuries and was taken to the same hospital.
A 39-year-old man from Indooroopilly, who was a passenger in the Tiida, was not injured.
According to fire crews, all passengers were out of their vehicles before crews arrived.
Police are investigating.
