gat' damn. Talk about luck. They plowed that concrete barrier too.....they should have something better there, guard rails are always an "i hope i don't go through or over it" situation.

I don't know, the way I figure it is that he spun in the road and hit the barrier backwards. If he was drunk I bet he sobered up quick.

But the front of the truck is the smashed part, so thats what must have hit.

it makes sense.......the truck was going "left" (when you are looking at it from this angle). He lost control and hit the barrier almost head on, then the truck spun around and he ended up going over the metal guard rail on the other side of that coulvert (sp?). You can see one of those wooden posts are broke right where he finally went over the guard rail.

He/She is one lucky SOB!
