Ibu dan anaknya masih terselamat dari satu kemalangan, yang jika kita lihat pada keadaan kereta, mustahil mereka akan terselamat. Untuk mengelakkan diri dari terpenyek, mereka berbaring sambil menanti pasukan penyelamat datang. Mereka hanya dirawat sebagai pesakit luar yang hanya mengalami luka ringan dan calar. Pemandu lori juga tidak mengalami sebarang kecederaan.
LAPORAN BAHASA INGGERIS:
A MOTHER and daughter had a miracle escape when a lorry carrying thousands of chickens overturned onto their car.
The daughter, who was driving, lay across her mother in the passenger seat to protect her as their Peugeot 107 was squashed to half its size.
They then both stayed as flat as possible to avoid being crushed until rescue workers arrived to free them.
Both women were checked over in hospital but miraculously had only cuts and bruises.
The lorry driver was also unhurt in the accident on the A64 near York.
Traffic cop Sgt Andy Quigley said it was one of the most amazing escapes from a crash he had seen during his 16 years policing the roads.
"They are very lucky indeed," he said. "When we got the call that a lorry had overturned on a car, we fully anticipated we would be dealing with a fatal accident.

"They are very lucky indeed," he said. "When we got the call that a lorry had overturned on a car, we fully anticipated we would be dealing with a fatal accident.
"The mother and daughter, who are from the York area, were taken to hospital to be treated for cuts, bruises and shock, as was the driver of the lorry."
He said he understood that the daughter was driving, with her mother in the passenger seat, when the accident happened as they were going round the roundabout to get on to the westbound A64.
The car was on the inside lane when the lorry toppled sideways on to it.
The road was strewn with dead or dying birds and RSPCA officers were called to the scene to deal with them.
