Accident Trans Canada Highway near Moncton Car VS Truck

Just after 11am this morning a woman was very lucky after a Transport truck cut her off on the Trans Canada Highway , clipping her car sending it flying into the median. Call came in that the car rolled and it was on its roof. The woman's vehicle was traveling west on the TCH and the accident happened in between Mapleton Road and Gorge Road Exits, this the same area where that Dept of Highways employee was hit by a Transport truck and killed while setting up road signs, and also the same exit where the man headed up the wrong ramp and causing a head on crash where he was killed and a young female passenger.
Codiac RCMP were first on scene later joined by District 11. Paramedics were on scene but the woman had no injuries. Road conditions were dry at time of the accident. Moncton Fire Dept were also responding to this accident but were turned away after RCMP found out the woman was ok!
Video aired on CTV NEWS with Bruce Frisko.

This almost same thing happened to me last winter...coming from Sackville I was passing a semi on the TransCanada and the rear of my car lost traction... spun out in front of the truck and got hit nose-to-nose. My car had no damage but the truck suffered a $5000 bumper. Shoved me in the ditch. I gotta thank that good samaritan who used his 4x4 to pull me out. The kicker? The impact straightened my frame which got bend from my first accident! (on Vaughn Harvey/St. George)
