BETHLEHEM, Pa. (WPVI) -- New surveillance video was released showing the moment an out-of-control car nearly crashed into several people outside of a Lehigh County bar.



It happened at Broadway Social on Sunday night in Bethlehem.



One camera captured the driver plowing into the side of the building, narrowly missing six diners.



Another angle shows the person backing out from the patio area, only to go through the fence again.



One woman, who avoided the first impact, actually wound up dodging the second impact when she went to grab her purse.



Fortunately, nobody was hurt.



The driver was arrested within minutes.
