San Antonio driver drives into ditch after being woken up at stoplight

SAN ANTONIO, TX — A driver drove into a ditch after falling asleep in San Antonio on Thursday.

According to mySanAntonio, the accident occurred after midnight at the intersection of Highway 281 and Bitters road. Evidently, the man fell asleep at a stop light on Highway 281 while driving late at night. Another driver pulled up behind him and honked at him for taking too long at the stop light. The man then awoke and drove forward suddenly and recklessly. This resulted in him veering off of the road into a ditch.

Medical services transported the driver to a nearby hospital where doctors treated him for his injuries. No charges are being brought against any participants at this time.
