A truck driver narrowly avoided hitting an apartment complex and crashed into a drainage ditch in Nashville, Tennessee on Friday morning.
The driver was not injured in the crash, but was issued a citation after he told officers he fell asleep behind the wheel.
A resident of the apartment complex, Clementine Garfield, praised the driver for avoiding the build and told reporters that she was “grateful he had the knowledge and skills to act quickly and bring things under control.”
The truck was carrying 40,000 pounds of food and was on the it’s way to Costco for a delivery when it crashed.
