May 6 (UPI) -- A truck driver in Florida walked away uninjured when several pieces of construction rebar pierced the front of the vehicle.

Brevard County Fire Rescue said two work trucks were involved in a crash in West Melbourne, causing rebar being carried by one of the trucks to pierce the front of the other vehicle.
