Trussville Fire & Rescue’s Gary Vaughn said the car was heading north on Deerfoot Parkway at about 11:30 p.m. or 11:45 p.m. when it crashed into the woods. He said the driver was alert but was transported to UAB Hospital with unknown injuries. The car was totaled, Vaughn said.
Vaughn said the car went into the woods a “pretty good ways.”
