(PEOPLE) — A Washington driver is counting her lucky stars after she survived a crash with a semi truck that left her car flattened on Tuesday.
According to Washington State Patrol trooper Rocky Oliphant, the driver was hit from behind by the semi truck while traveling on the I-5. Pictures shared by the trooper show a sedan completely crumbled underneath the wheels of the truck.
There’s really not a word to describe this collision. Miraculously believed to be minor injuries. The car was struck from behind, folded the car in half, and semi came to rest on top of the car. In my 14 year career, I have never seen anything like it. https://t.co/iUsSNIhHYV pic.twitter.com/EPGI70s3Um
