A bicycle helmet helped a young Oregon woman escape serious injury when her head was run over by a car after a collision.
Marion County sheriff's deputies said 18-year-old Heather Wolff, of Scotts Mills, was trying to avoid hitting a car driven by 30-year-old Brandon Steinke, of Salem, when she was thrown over the handlebars of her bicycle. Her head was run over by a rear wheel of the car.
Deputies said the bike helmet was crushed but Wolff was released from Salem Hospital shortly after the Wednesday night accident.
