Fire crews in North East Lincolnshire say it was a "miracle" no one was seriously injured when an LGV shed its load of timber on to a passing car.
The logs fell in a crash between two lorries on Pelham Road in Immingham.
A man driving in the opposite direction was trapped in his estate car by the timber and was freed by fire fighters. He is in hospital with minor injuries.
A fire service spokesman said: "It is a miracle that the car wasn't totally crushed in the incident."
He added: "It is also lucky that there were no pedestrians in the vicinity at the time of the collision.
"Our crews were faced with a very challenging task which was made worse by the possibility of the logs slipping and crushing emergency service workers on scene."
