Until a cat ran in front of her by reflax she tried to aviod the cat so she swerved to the right and struck a mailbox then she swerved to the left trying to gian control of the truck. Then while trying to gian control swerved back to the right going over a ditch and entering private property. Then she struck a pine tree which also struck some power lines.
