Speeding car rear-ends car along Airport Boulevard on 3 Sept

At the start of the video, a black car can be seen speeding down the expressway.

For some reason, the driver seemingly failed to notice another vehicle travelling on the left adjacent lane.

As the speeding car got closer to the other vehicle, its brake lights flashed repeatedly, likely as the driver was attempting a last-minute brake to avoid a collision.
