In a bizarre road incident on China's Hebei Expressway, a truck was skewered by a wind turbine blade last Friday.

What happened: The massive blade pierced through a shipping container, leaving the cabin intact. The driver was fortunate to escape without injuries.

• This shocking accident unfolded along a busy highway where turbine blades were being transported.
• The container truck hit the turbine blade at some speed, causing the blade to go straight through the container, reported The Autopian.

Behind the wheel: Thankfully, the truck driver managed to swerve at the last moment, preventing a direct hit to the cab.

• The design of turbine transporters often causes these blades to hang over the back of the trailer, creating potential hazards for following vehicles.

The aftermath: No casualties were reported from the incident, sparking a closer look at how oversized loads are hauled on public roads.

The fortunate outcome was that no one was hurt during this extraordinary crash.
