SUV crash into log truck in Georgia 

WHITFIELD COUNTY, Ga. — It was nothing short of a miracle that a Georgia driver survived a crash with a log truck

The crash happened in Whitfield County earlier this month on Cleveland Highway.

The county fire department shared photos of the crash on its Facebook page. In the photos, you can see the SUV crashed into the rear of the truck that was hauling dozens of logs.

Several of the logs went crashing through the front windshield -- and all the way back through the length of the SUV.
