SUV Becomes Wrapped in Plastic on Inver Grove Heights Highway

A SUV became entangled in heavy duty plastic on Wednesday, February 14, as the driver was traveling on Highway 52 in Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota. The Minnesota State Patrol said the plastic flew off a dump truck.

The trooper happened upon the plastic-wrapped SUV on the highway and helped the driver get the plastic off his vehicle. The incident was captured on the trooper’s dashcam.

“The driver said he saw what was about to happen and slowed down so he could pull over. Another reminder why it’s so important to keep your eyes on the road and off of your phone. It’s also important to secure objects in a truck or trailer to avoid a potentially deadly situation,” the state patrol said. Credit: Minnesota State Patrol via Storyful
