One way to do this, in the manner of the light trails coming towards you is to;
lock your focus on your subject,
set you fill flash mid to low,
keep your aperture moderately open, this may need tinkering depending on your specific shoot.
use a slower shutter,
practice and tinker with hitting you shutter and your zoom at the same time..
USE A TRIPOD!!!
this is fun experimentation approach it like that....

The foreground of the photograph has been taken with a flash - a second curtain flash which fires as the shutter closes after a long exposure. A zoom lens was used and during the long exposure the zoom was moved which gives the effect in the background. I don't think the photograph is a combination of two - a responsible newspaper like the Irish Times would not do that.

Two possibilities:
1. The camera is set on a low speed owing to the ambient obscurity (about 1 or 2 seconds of exposure) and the photograph was moving ahead while the flash worked (the average timespeed of a professional flash is 1/50,000 second). This technique is called "open-flash."
2. The same as above but the photograph used a zoom lens and he did zoom at the very same time he shot the picture but the light of the flash did freeze everything was within its range. You can obtain similar artistic effects in daylight while using a zoom that way.
Everything is within range of the flash won’t be blurred in all cases.

its an exposure of 1 second or so, the flash is fired to freeze the person, after the flash has fired the camera has been moved and a slight "zoom pull" has taken place, if you look at the lights in the background you can see the direction of the camera movement during exposure after the flash

Okay, I'm no expert but it looks to me like the picture is taken under low-light, with a flash.
That's my NON-expert guess, how did I do?

Flash and slow shutter speed.

Fast film... slow shutter speed
