Locals said the driver, who was delivering goods, was driving along the narrow mountain road because he was following the directions on his satnav.

But when it became clear the road was too narrow, he decided to go back down the mountain, but he was unable to turn his truck around.

Rescuers used three heavy dumper trucks to drag the truck back onto the road.
