Truck Driver Crashes Into Dealership After Choking on His Drink

A  man driving a milk tanker in Pennsylvania found himself in a mess of trouble after his drink caused a major accident.

The man apparently choked on his drink and started coughing so hard that he couldn't see and ended up plowing into a car dealership.

The man started choking on his Dr. Pepper and ended up driving through a grassy area before driving into the dealership and destroying 23 new cars on the lot and driving into the building of the dealership.

I think we have all had that moment when we have taken a drink and started choking. It just goes, "down the wrong pipe," it isn't intentional but it can wreak havoc. You go into this crazy coughing fit. I mean it really is your body trying to keep you alive. I know I have had those moments and it is bad and you are coughing so hard you can't see and tear start running down your cheeks. I completely understand how something like this could happen. I have even gotten choked while driving. Luckily it was nothing this extreme.

Can you imagine how this trucker felt when he had to explain to the police what happened. "Yeah, uh...I got choked on my Dr. Pepper."

Luckily no one was hurt. It stinks that he still got a ticket for careless driving, but he wasn't walking away from that one without a citation for something.

This is one of those crazy stories where you get into those wrecks and think how did that just happen.

We'll be talking about this on our topic of the day on Mornings on Mix.

What's the most embarrassing or funniest thing you have crashed into?

I'll be honest, I have backed into my garage door several times. I'll get into my car hit the garage door opener and just back up. Sometimes the door doesn't go up and I backed into it. I guess it is habit. It's embarrassing.
