Happens all to often. Take a look at this miracle.

The New Jersey State Police trooper injured in a horrific three-vehicle crash on Monday continues to recover, with his boss calling it a “miracle” that Luis Sierra is doing so well after being thrown from his vehicle after being rear-ended by a dump truck.“For him to get ejected through that windshield and bounce off the right lane, (it’s) really just a miracle,” Colonel Pat Callahan, the superintendent of the New Jersey State Police said.
