Archers Involved In Serious Accident
Thankfully, everybody's okay (ht: PP):
Archer, now the defensive coordinator at North Carolina State, and his wife, were returning to their Carolina home after spending the week in Cincinnati, where son Jeff was married on June 26.
Somewhere on I-64, between Huntington and Charleston, West Va., the Archers were stopped because of road construction. Stuck behind a tractor-trailer truck, Mike noticed an approaching car in his rear view mirror. When he realized the vehicle wasn't stopping, he instructed his wife to "duck." He may have saved their lives.
The collision shoved the Archer car into and under the semi, smashing in the roof of their vehicle.
Local emergency workers used the Jaws of Life to free the couple, who were treated at an area hospital for cuts and bruises.

Jeebus!
1 – That’s pretty damn aware on his part.
2 – They got out of being shoved under an 18-wheeler with just cuts & bruises??? Amazing.
Obviously, best wishes for minor injuries and a speedy recovery…
same thing almost happened to me on 40 once
Parked behind 18-wheeler, stop and go traffic…looked in rearview and saw another 18-wheeler barreling down the highway, clearly not going to stop in time. Fortunately he swerved. Absolutely terrifying.
