The 32-year-old Washington Township woman was waiting to turn left onto Buttermilk Bridge Road when she was struck and pushed into oncoming traffic by the truck — which was traveling westbound on Route 57 toward Phillipsburg — around 1 p.m. Saturday, township police said.
The woman’s car — a silver Hyundai Sonata — then collided with a 61-year-old woman driving a blue Dodge Caravan heading the opposite direction, authorities said.
The pregnant woman was transported to Hunterdon Hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, authorities said.
The 61-year-old woman was transported to St. Luke’s Warren Campus.
The driver of the truck never stopped, authorities said.
The driver, believed to be a white man, was operating a tan colored Ford quad cab pick-up truck pulling an open trailer that contained a Kubota orange skid steer, authorities said.
This investigation is ongoing. Anyone who may have surveillance footage from Pleasant Valley Road or Route 57 between 12:50 p.m. and 1:15 p.m. Saturday is asked to contact Washington Township Police at 908-689-1111.
