HARRIS COUNTY, Texas — A truck driver is lucky to be alive after narrowly escaping his truck as it went off an overpass in the La Porte area Thursday afternoon.

This happened on Highway 225 heading east. Pasadena police said two trucks started hydroplaning when one clipped the other, causing it to flip.
The truck then went airborne and the driver was either ejected or jumped from the cab of the truck. That driver landed on the freeway while the truck went off the overpass, police said.
Police said the driver had minor injuries.
