    its amazing you could be in a car and have a semi land on you and no only survive but be in good enough condition to help others at the scene.

    Guess they were lucky the trailer wasnt loaded. Otherwise that car would have been a pancake.

    The real problem is the one that caused the accident will likely never lose the license.

    The driver of the Camry was able to climb out of her car with the help of others, Adolph said. She sustained minor injuries, and was alert and conscious when emergency personnel arrived, Adolph said.

    Although a couple inches shorter. o_O

    To both drivers, they both transported to local hospital for checking out, it would be hard to believe no major injuries on either driver or anyone else..was everyone using the seatbelts properly? It could be a good pr spot on proper seat belt use.
