The pole came down and the wires fell onto the truck, but the woman backed onto the roadway and resumed driving.
Trooper Rick Carlson said the driver kept going until flames engulfed the truck and she had to jump out. An ambulance caught up to her and took her to a Kalamazoo hospital for burns to her hands and head. Her injuries weren't life-threatening.
Carlson says the woman's dog, a pug, also was burned but survived.
