Authorities managed to extricate the turtle from the windshield, and initially, it survived the unusual incident. However, the turtle lost one of its legs in the process.
Regrettably, when Lark checked on the turtle’s condition a few days later, she received the heartbreaking news that it had succumbed to its injuries, primarily due to significant blood loss.
In the aftermath of this freak occurrence, Lark issued a stark warning to fellow drivers, urging them to remain attentive when behind the wheel. She emphasized the need for vigilance on the road, cautioning that inattentive drivers could lead to such bizarre accidents.
“If people are not paying attention to the road… you know, whoever hit that turtle, they had to have been flying,” Lark said.
