Officials said the SUV was traveling at a high rate of speed when it crossed the centerline.

The driver of the car, Tom Morasco, said he swerved to avoid hitting the SUV head on.

“Fight or flight. That’s it,” Morasco said. “I’m just grateful I’m alive, to be honest. I know it’s cliché, but it’s like, when things like this happen you should just be grateful you’re alive.”

I just talked to the owner of this Hyundai he told me he saw white SUV flying toward him. “It was fight or flight.” Swerved out of the way and crashed into a pole. Otherwise, he says it would’ve been a head on collision. @WPXI pic.twitter.com/83mQLU6mMg
