Default One less Intimidator on the road...

This happened the other day on I-84 in Bridal Veil, OR.



"BRIDAL VEIL, Ore. -- A large tree fell on Interstate 84 Friday, hitting two cars and blocking the roadway, police said.

Both vehicles were headed westbound in the right lane, near milepost 26, when the 60-foot-tall tree fell to the roadway and struck them, according to Oregon State Police Lt. Gregg Hastings. No injuries were reported.

The back window of one vehicle was shattered. The tree then crushed the passenger compartment and rear end of the vehicle behind it.

The westbound lanes were closed for about 30 minutes while crews cleared the debris, Hastings said."

=============================
One never knows what may happen on their highways of `Life 4-Sure..And I thought parking @ Walmart was dangerous Now everyone has to look above or in the skies for falling trees, bird dropping, space debris, etc.

Buckle `Up & be safe out there on your highways of `Life...
What `if ? ~>EnJoy your Now~>WoW ~> 4-Sure

No lie this happened to me in my moms 01 yukon back in 05. I was driving home from work during a storm and a big tree fell on me while I was driving. took out windshield hood, both front fenders, and driverside door. Roof held up but needed new rails and metal work. I thought I was only one who got hit by a tree.
