The trucker, 52 year old Richard Nathaniels of Bryan, said he was looking out for the northbound vehicle because he heard other truckers in the area on the CB radio complaining about a Mustang driving all over the roadway.
Nathaniels was taken to St. Joseph Hospital to be treated for minor injuries.
Investigators plan to do an autopsy on the deceased driver of the Mustang to determine if drugs or alcohol was involved.
The incident remains under investigation at this time.
