SUV Plunges 60 Feet Off New Jersey Bridge

An SUV driver swerving to avoid striking another vehicle on a highway Friday hit a snowbank along a guardrail and catapulted 60 feet off a bridge. Incredibly, authorities say, the two women inside suffered only minor injuries, and the vehicle landed upright. The Toyota Rav4 was headed east on Interstate 80 when it plunged off the bridge in Hackensack around 7:15 a.m., police said. The driver, 25-year-old Elizabeth Wolthoff of Bergenfield, veered sideways after her vehicle was cut off, officials said.
