SAN JOSE, Calif. — Northern California authorities say a driver is lucky to be alive after a large metal beam pierced the windshield of his SUV while on a San Jose freeway.
San Jose Fire Department Capt. Christopher Salcido says the beam fell off of a flatbed truck, crashing through the windshield and lodging itself into the driver’s seat of the BMW.
The driver, 66-year-old Don Lee of San Jose, California, suffered a small scratch to his right arm.
Both vehicles were traveling at 60 mph when the incident occurred around noon Friday on I-280.
