The video shows two cyclists riding side by side in the inside lane of the freeway.
Suddenly the Subaru emerges in the distance and is seen barreling towards them.
The vehicle continues to bomb down the road before ramming into the back of one of the cyclist, knocking them into the road.
The car then swerves and clips the back wheel of the other cyclist, sending him sprawling to the floor.
The vehicle then speeds over his limp body with first the front then back wheel, crushing the man into the ground.
As the clip ends the car is seen speeding off in the outside lane.
