The SUV collided with the front of a dump truck -- causing it to turn over. "It took me a while to walk down there just to see if there way anyone else in the vehicle. She was the only one, and she was coherent. I'm amazed she wasn't killed instantly cause the whole front of the Jeep was collapsed on her," said witness George Art.
