JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- A driver of a pickup truck survived a scary crash on JTB and I-295.

Police said two cars collided in front of Matt Reese's pickup Thursday.  The cars careened into his lane and pushed his truck off JTB. According to police, his truck flipped before landing upside down in a ditch.

Reese said his head was under water, "I stayed conscious the whole way through and thank God I did because if I would've gone out underneath that water I'd be gone because I wouldn't be able to survive." 

Police said no one was hurt. Florida Highway Patrol cited one of the drivers for wreckless driving.

1. Wreckless Adding a "W" to a defined word because of a lack of education and assumed meaning. The incorrect spelling of reckless.
