The Maxima was dragged along the highway for seven-tenths of a mile (1.12-kilometres) after getting jammed into the side of the carrot carrying truck. Thankfully, other drivers on the highway managed to bring the truck to a halt before the Nissan, and its driver could suffer any more damage.

What made this incident even more bizarre was the fact that the truck driver claimed he didn't even notice that his truck had crashed into the car.
