San Bernardino County Firefighters arrived and had to hike down the steep hillside to check on the vehicle and they located the driver.

Using a basket, firefighters used their strength to pull the injured driver back up to the roadway. The male shouted out in pain as he was placed onto a gurney and moved into an awaiting ambulance.
