    As far as I know noone cut anything. Phil extracted himself and if the story I got was true he was hunting his cell phone when the Deputy showed up who gave him a lift to an overpass where they waited out the storm.


    Those Pete's are sectional even though they do not look like it. I would say as he rolled onto his passenger side it peeled open. The driver side A post is still there on the drivers side.

    I was just thinking that exact same thing. Must be the trauma junkie/extrication nut inside all of us.:biggrin_2559:

    Thank God that driver survived. Just another reason you should wear your seatbelt...no excuses.

    I was a 1/4 mile north heading south when this tornado crossed I-65. I saw this truck sitting on it's side,flipped over the guard rail. Scary day for all, glad the driver was ok.
