Freak Accident Caused by Snowplow
Chloe Hampy was on her way to pick up a co-worker who was snowed in when, while driving under the overpass at 32nd and Pittsburgh, her car was hit by a block of snow.
Chloe Hampy said, "I was going under an underpass, and all of the snow the plow was pushing came crashing down on my windshield. I was in shock, obviously, at first. I didn’t realize what happened until I realized I was covered in glass."
Chloe continued to work afterward, but she was still shaken by the thought of what could have happened. She acknowledges that while the accident could have been avoided, she understands the challenges plow drivers are facing during this time.
Chloe Hampy said, "I understand they have an extremely hard job. I know that guy up on the bridge has no idea that happened, and I completely understand that they are risking their lives in the storm every day."
