A relic from a bygone era may have saved the lives of two pedestrians after an electric vehicle lost control and almost ran them over in Milwaukee.
Shocking footage from Saturday shows the moment a dark SUV goes into the path of a white speeding car, sending it rolling onto two people on the sidewalk.
It appears that the car struck an old pedestal with a payphone, moving it to the right just enough to spare the couple from tragedy.
The female pedestrian is on video seen getting up and running to the back of the car to help the man on the ground.
