A food delivery driver wound up in a precarious (and dangerous) situation over the weekend, but escaped with only minor injuries, officials said.<\/p>\n

Details regarding the one-car accident on Manor Drive late Saturday night are not fully clear, however authorities said the car apparently struck a utility pole at such an angle that the vehicle went vertical and became propped up against it. The driver fell to the ground but escaped any major injuries. He was taken to Ocean Medical Center for treatment.<\/p>\n
