Lucky driver OK after steering wheel pops off

6 March 2010 / AP, ARLINGTON, WASH.
State troopers said a man is lucky to have only minor injuries when he crashed his car into a barn after his steering wheel popped off while driving.
 Trooper Keith Leary said the 59-year-old man was driving his 1978 Buick on Thursday afternoon on State Route 530 when his steering wheel came off, the car left the road, went down an embankment, up the other side, and crashed into a barn. The man narrowly missed a power pole and several small barns with calves inside. Rescuers said it’s a miracle the man suffered only minor neck pain in the accident. The farm’s owner said the car destroyed the farm’s refrigeration and milking area and happened right as 140 cows were about to be milked.
