WAYNE COUNTY, Ill. – Dash camera footage captured what Illinois State Police are calling a “miracle on the ice.”
In the video from November 12, an out-of-control truck narrowly misses two troopers and a woman as they change a tire. Winter weather in the area had left the roadway slick and icy.
The troopers were able to pull the woman out of the way and into a ditch just in time, and the truck passed over her.
She was treated for minor injuries. The troopers weren’t hurt.
The footage also captured the reaction of a second woman who’d been sitting in the squad car.
The truck driver was ticketed for failing to reduce speed to avoid a crash.
