Quote:

MARMET, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- A sleepy driver appears to have caused a dangerous situation in eastern Kanawha County.
The accident happened around 10:30 am along Route 94 in Marmet.
State police say the driver of the car fell asleep and crossed the center line, hitting a coal truck head-on. He was taken to the hospital, but he's expected to be okay.
The driver of the coal truck was not hurt.
One lane of Route 94 is still closed while crews clear the roadway.
