THIS is the shocking moment that a delivery driver smashes into the back of a parked van after seemingly being distracted by his phone.
The cyclist, who appears to be wearing a Deliveroo jacket, was caught on camera making the painful-looking blunder.

The clip, posted to TikTok, shows the rider cycling along the road at a decent speed.
He can be seen apparently looking down at something on his handlebars, which the user that posted the video suggested could be a phone.
He then looks up just in time to see that he is swerving towards the stationary white van, before smacking into it.
The unfortunate cyclist’s front wheel hits the vehicle first, tipping him forward over the handlebars.
This forces him to face plant the van’s rear doors before he crumples to the floor stunned.
Another cyclist, who was riding behind the poor man, and a nearby pedestrian stopped off to check on him, having seen the whole ordeal unfold.
They helped him to his feet and were speaking to him as the video cut off.
The caption on the clip read: “Someone is not receiving their order!
“Ride safe, do not look at your phone.”
Social media commenters were quick to see the funny side and didn’t offer the unfortunate rider much sympathy.
One wrote: “Why is this funny?”
Another joked: “He needs to hurry up with my food.”
Meanwhile a third chimed in: “Bet he was sore in the morning.”
