A truck that was supposedly cleaning the newly-widened road at Tal-Balal kicked up a dust storm and a storm on social media on Tuesday.

Drivers stared in amazement as the truck scooped up the dust, only to spew it back in the air, creating a cloud which blanked out visibility, causing a danger to motorists and an obvious health hazard.

The footage was uploaded to Facebook by Pierre P. Portelli.
