A We Energies crew rescued a woman whose car had plunged off an embankment on U.S. 99 in California. The team was driving back to Wisconsin after helping to restore power in California when the crash happened..

Sometimes, you’re just in the right place at the right time.

That was the case for a crew of We Energies repair workers who, as they were beginning their drive home on Saturday after helping to restore power in central California, saw a woman lose control of her SUV as she passed their five-truck convoy on a wet highway and plunge down a 75-foot embankment.

The We Energies employees, who had first aid and safety training, pulled over and scrambled down the embankment to SUV. They helped the woman out of the vehicle, which had landed on its side in a pool of water, got her back up to the road and treated her for minor injuries.

“Where this vehicle ended up it kind of blended in with the surroundings. There was an off-ramp there, but it was difficult to see the embankment,” said Jeb Loth, a We Energies operations supervisor.
