Motorists and their passengers can be seen walking away with goods in boxes from the truck although it is not clear what the goods are.
The rain and darkness do not seem to deter the looters.
No authorities can be seen in the video and there is no mention of the condition of the truck or the driver of the truck.
However, it appears the truck overturned, and veered off the road before being stuck on the side of the road.
