He’s a lucky, lucky boy.

Caution should be exercised behind the wheel at all times, but especially so when conditions aren’t the best, as has been the case in snowy Boston in recent weeks. One motorist in the area is lucky to be alive after crashing his pickup truck off the upper deck and onto the lower deck of a highway and through a light pole, an exit sign and a fence on Interstate 93 at the weekend. http://youtu.be/VgcK6_Nj7Ys The driver in question, 33-year old Vannak Sao, had to be extricated from his vehicle by firefighters and was subsequently brought to hospital, where his condition was stabilised. He will face charges of operating under the influence of alcohol and negligent operation of a motor vehicle but he’s lucky to still be alive after the crash, which was captured by CCTV cameras, occurred shortly before 6.30am on Sunday morning. Thankfully, no other vehicles were involved in the crash and nobody else was hurt. Video via YouTube/Fox Boston
