A crash on Interstate 95 in Wilson County, North Carolina, took a bizarre turn on November 26 when a box truck rear-ended an RV that was transporting several animals, including 28 snakes, two tortoises, five Bearded Dragons, two dogs, and a cat. Watch Video Below.
The RV, which was headed from South Carolina to Pennsylvania, was struck just after midnight by the truck, which allegedly crashed due to the driver falling asleep at the wheel.
Inside the RV, one of the snakes, a highly venomous viper, was able to escape after the crash. However, the owner quickly caught the dangerous reptile before EMS arrived.
Despite the chaos, all the animals survived, and the child sleeping in the RV’s rear bedroom when the Jeep was forced into it was uninjured.
