A 21-year-old Unionville man managed to escape a Friday accident unscathed, despite flying into a group of trees and striking several of them.
The Huron County Sheriff’s Department reports that the man was headed south on Unionville Road near Canboro Road on Friday, December 30, when he struck a deer with his 2021 Chevy Equinox and swerved off the left side of the road. The vehicle continued into a ditch, then a driveway’s embankment, flying around 100 feet before landing and striking a group of trees.
While the damage to the SUV was substantial in several places, requiring a tow away from the scene, the driver was alright, as the airbags had deployed and he was wearing his seatbelt during the accident.
