A Johnsonburg man was not injured when his 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 struck a guiderail while avoiding a vehicle that had turned in his path.
John D. Zimmerman, 40, of Johnsonburg, PA, was wearing his lap & shoulder belt when the crash occurred at 5:15 PM on Friday on Route 321 at it's intersection with Brick Yard Road in Wetmore Township.
Trooper Andrew Brothers, said the crash occurred as a 2008 Ford 350 was illegally parked facing southbound on the northbound shoulder, fixing his mailbox. The roadway was snow covered.
Zimmerman was traveling southbound in the southbound lane.
The Ford, the driver of which was not identified in the report, attempted to cross the roadway, placing the vehicle perpendicular across the roadway as it traveled from the northbound shoulder across the northbound lane and partially entered the southbound lane.
Zimmerman perceived the treat from the Ford entering his lane and attempted to swerve to the right to avoid a collision. His vehicle then impacted a guide rail radius located on the south side of the intersection with it's right front, then continuing traveling southbound before coming to rest partially blocking the southbound lane.
The driver of the Ford was cited for Vehicle Entering or Crossing Roadway and Additional Parking Regulations.
