Buttocks impaled - that's what a Colorado woman got in learning the hard way about the dangers of texting while driving. Odd as the news of a buttocks impaled may seem, the Colorado mom admitted the unfortunate event happening to her, saying she was texting while driving as she hit a guardrail pole that went through her car, piercing her thigh and buttocks.

The woman survived to tell about the buttocks impaled tale, and it appeared that she has certainly learned the hard lesson that texting while driving is hazardous to one's health, even life, as evidenced in her interview by KUSA TV.

According to KUSA TV, in order for Elizabeth firefighters to get the woman out from her buttocks impaled, they had to saw off the front and back end of the pole.

On Wednesday morning, Christina Jahnz was in the parking lot of Elizabeth Middle School after her daughter forgot her saxophone at home.

Everything seemed in order and her day would resume as normal until she made the mistake of texting her friend as she was driving away from the school.

"I was running late for a business meeting, so I did a voice text. I looked down to make sure it was all right."Jahnz told KUSA TV.

"The next thing I knew, I was looking up, there was white powder from the air bags deployed."

Later on, Jahnz was shocked to realize she had struck a guardrail pole which had her buttocks impaled after it first went through the front of her truck and sliced a channel through her thighs and into the back of her seat.

Suddenly, texting while driving is not to be taken lightly anymore.

According to The Inquisitr, local firefighters rushed to the scene. They were surprised finding Jahnz with her buttocks impaled, realizing their task at hand wasn't that simple.

They reportedly needed to formulate a plan to pull out the woman safely from the car, and not cause further injury. Surprisingly though, Jahnz was conscious throughout the ordeal, as firefighters removed her buttocks impaled from the wreck.

They eventually came up with a plan to use a saw and cut away at the front and rear of the pole to remove Jahnz safely. They eventually removed her and afterwards took her to a local hospital, while the object was reportedly still lodged in her body.

According to Jahnz, she saw the firefighters using a saw to cut the front and back end of the pole. They rushed her to Parker Adventist Hospital, where she was lucky to have had immediate treatment for her buttocks impaled.

She also described to KUSA TV about her time and treatment in the hospital and how the experts removed the lodged rail from her buttocks impaled.

"I went into surgery and I lost count of the stitches after 40. They stitched me up inside too. I'm truly a miracle", Jahnz said.

She continued, "They said if it [had] gone just a little bit the other way I would have bled out."

Fortunately, the operation was successful hence she was able to live to tell the tale, and the lesson behind the whole ordeal.

On Sunday night, four days after her stay in the hospital, The Inquisitr reports that Jahnz was then discharged from the hospital.

According to the Toronto Sun, she was released as she is expected to make a full recovery, though she will be needing a walker to be able to walk.

Jahnz reportedly reflected on the events that could have taken her life.

She said that even though she was only driving slowly at 20 miles per hour, it pays to be focused on the road and not distracted in the least bit. Jahnz said that her buttocks impaled were the result of her having looked down for only a split second to text.

She said that being distracted and driving can result in tragic circumstances.

"It's devastating knowing that I could have prevented it to begin with," Jahnz said.

She added, "I just hope my story helps to save the lives of others. Don't text and drive."

Buttocks impaled incident could have happened to anyone. The accident is only a few of the many tragic results of texting while driving. However, as dangerous as it is to text and drive, not all states have laws that prohibit the act, reports The Inquisiutr. Science, on the other hand, is quickly catching up and promoting studies which suggest that texting while driving is as dangerous as drunk driving.
