The video captures the moment after 61-year-old Rudie shot through a gap in the concrete barriers.
Rudie had his smartphone set up on the dashboard of his black BMW 3 Series and was following directions to a friend’s address.
But the changing directions on the car display confused Rudie so he drove on, resulting in him and his passenger, Endang Sri Wahyuni, 47, plunging off the bridge.
Rudie said: “The road suddenly became dark and there were no other cars.
“My friend said she is not getting in the car with me again. But it was not my fault – I was trying to follow the GPS on my phone, but it was confusing.
“I’m worried about the insurance for the car – I don’t think it can be repaired.”

As opposed to taking the lanes on either side to exit the elevated expressway, Rudie drove on to the unfinished bridge on the JI Tol Manyar – Mojokerto road.
“The driver and passenger have been treated by a doctor at the hospital and did not suffer serious injuries.
He added: “Traffic officers have taken measures to prevent an incident from happening again.
Since the incident, officers said they have closed the gap that the car had passed through and put up warning signs.
