An upstate New York driver was found still strapped into his seat in the middle of a road after a collision with a semi-truck split his pickup in half and ejected him from the vehicle.

Police said the pickup driver T-boned a tractor-trailer after blowing through a stoplight in Le Roy at around 7 a.m. Friday, according to Buffalo’s NBC affiliate WGRZ.

He and his seat were thrown into the intersection of Griswold and West Bergen roads, where he reportedly suffered non-life threatening injuries to his head and lower body.

Crash site photos obtained by ABC 13 in Rochester show debris scattered about the scene of the collision, with the Chevy Silverado clearly cut in half and a metal utility pole knocked over.

The semi-truck driver and his juvenile passenger were said to be uninjured in the crash.

Police are still investigating the crash that occurred roughly 25 miles west of Rochester. They have not released the names of either driver.
