log through car

Woman miraculously survives log crashing into her windshield

September 23, 2022 Blog

“The driver of a Jeep was taken to the hospital after a log from a truck crashed through their windshield in Angelina County.

According to DPS, they investigated a crash involving a commercial motor vehicle on U.S. Highway 69, at the intersection Farm-to-Market Road 326 Wednesday.

The preliminary investigation indicates that at approximately 8 a.m., a 1996 Kenworth truck tractor semi-trailer, which was hauling logs, was traveling north, followed by a 2014 Jeep SUV and a 2018 Jeep SUV. It is reported that the truck tractor entered the turning lane and began to make a right turn, which caused the logs to swing out and enter the north lane, when the 2014 Jeep struck one of them. The log entered the 2014 Jeep through the windshield on the passenger side, which caused the Jeep to spin and break the log off the semi-trailer, at which point the 2018 Jeep collided with the 2014 Jeep.”

Astonishingly, no one was seriously injured in the accident. This includes the driver of the tractor-trailer, the woman in the 2014 jeep, and another woman and 3-year-old in the 2018 jeep. The incident evokes memories of a scene in the movie Final Destination 2 where logs come loose from a truck causing a massive multi-car pile-up. It’s always recommended to use caution and great distance when following load-bearing vehicles.
