A truck axle narrowly missed a mother driving her kids to school in Lackawanna County on Friday.

Photos from local towing company Duchniks Towing show the axle piercing the vehicle's windscreen in front of the drivers seat.

According to local reports, the car was being driven in the opposite direction of the truck when the truck's axle and tyre broke away, before hitting the vehicle.
