A wrong-way driver on Highway 401 near Milton has been charged after a “shocking video” provided by provincial police shows a vehicle nearly striking another motorist.

The close call happened around 6 p.m. on Sept. 7 when a black car was eastbound in the westbound lanes of Highway 401 near James Snow Parkway , say Ontario Provincial Police.

A dashcam video shared by OPP shows a motorist travelling in the centre of three Highway 401 lanes when a black car suddenly comes barrelling straight toward it.
