IMPALED BY GUARDRAIL Published June 12, 2011 By Wire reports WASHINGTON -- A Suburban was impaled by a guardrail when its driver, a 22-year-old man, fell asleep at the wheel while driving on I-90 in Washington state. When the driver dozed off, his vehicle drifted off the shoulder of the road, hitting the end section of guardrail. The rail came through the right headlight, engine compartment, firewall, glove box, passenger seat, rear seat and exited out the driver's side rear window. Some 120 feet of metal guardrail threaded through the Suburban. The driver must have had a lucky rabbit's foot for a keychain. He was not injured, and there were no passengers in the vehicle.
