Weird crash: SUV gets skewered by guardrail in Roosevelt

ROOSEVELT−An SUV traveling on Route 571 in the borough drifted off the road Sunday and caught the sharp end a guardrail that skewered the vehicle, but left whoever was in it uninjured, authorities said.

The crash happened about 4:30 p.m. on what’s also known as North Rochdale Avenue, said Sgt. Philip Curry of the New Jersey State Police.

The crash involved only one vehicle and no injuries, Curry said.

After striking the barrier lengthwise, the SUV continued along the same path, ending in what appears to be in the middle of the section of guardrail, based on photos from the Millstone Township Fire Department. About 20 feet of the guardrail was left sticking out of the rear of the car.

No further information was released about the driver, possible passengers or whether any tickets were issued.
