By Mrs. I. Perl

An accident occurred on Route 17 between exits 129 and 130 earlier today when a female driver fell asleep behind the wheel. 

The car veered down a steep incline and got caught in bushes only a short distance away from a lake.

Monroe EMS and State Police responded to the scene to rescue the driver, who got out without any injuries.
