The woman landed on the highway, hitting her head. She was rushed to a local hospital, where doctors pronounced her dead.
A doctor in the United States died in a freak accident when she tumbled out of a moving trailer. According to New York Post, Dr Monika Woroniecka kept clutching the trailer's handle to avoid falling out of the trailer, which was being driven by her husband, Robert P Woroniecki. Quoting the police, the outlet said that the incident took place on Saturday (April 6) on a state highway during a family road trip. Dr Woroniecka lived in Long Island and was a children's allergy and immunology specialist at Stony Brook Medicine.
The vehicle involved in the accident, which took place shortly after 3pm, was a 2019 Gray Ram pick-up truck, which had a Grey Airstream trailer attached to it.
Motorists who witnessed the frightening fatal fall said the passenger-side door of the Airstream flew open, helped by the wind - while the doctor was clutching its handle, police said on their website.
