I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, someone could have easily died when a driver lost control of their vehicle in Dallas, Texas. I’m not sure exactly what happened, and I really hope there was no medical emergency that caused this vehicle crash, but there are photos and videos going viral showing the incident that could have been a whole lot worse. 

First, I stumbled upon a photo on the Dallas Texas TV Facebook page that showed a small SUV that somehow almost went down in a hole that was being worked on by construction workers. It showed a police officer that looked like he was writing a citation and what I thought it was unusual for a vehicle to end up like that I just kept scrolling.

That’s When a Video of the Incident Was Posted 

It was 2 or 3 hours after that photo was posted that I saw a video posted that showed the entire incident. The driver somehow didn’t see the construction signs up and lost control of their vehicle as they kept gaining speed headed toward the construction site. Luckily it seems as though no one was hurt throughout this incident which is amazing.

I’m not certain if the driver was distracted or something else happened but this is a great reminder for all of us to pay attention when driving. You never know what is going on in the vehicle next to you so make sure you’re doing everything possible to keep yourself and your passengers safe.
