Truck Rolls Over on Small Car; Trapped Driver Films His Rescue

On Thursday, September 26 a huge truck, traveling north on Albany arterial I-787, rolled over on a small Nissan.  Miraculously, the driver of the car survived (as did the truck driver).  With just inches to spare, the car driver waited patiently as the Watervliet and Troy, NY fire departments came to the accident scene to engineer his extrication.  With little to do but wait, the pinned driver managed to manipulate his phone into his bloody hand and actually film parts of his own recuse.

This film is short and does contain profanity, but it is gripping and heart-stopping to watch.
