Driver of Car That Plunged from the Bay Bridge is Out of the Hospital

A woman who swam to safety after her car plunged 40 feet from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Friday night is out of the hospital, according to reports. 

Morgan Jade Lake, 22, of Sunderland, was released from the R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center in Baltimore on Saturday, a Maryland Transportation Authority Police spokesman said Sunday, WBAL reported.

Lake was driving a 2007 Chrysler Sebring eastbound on the bridge around 8 p.m. Friday, WTOP reported.

A tractor-trailer hit the car, sending it over a Jersey wall and into the bay, according to reports. 

Neither the truck driver—identified as Gabor Lavasz of Prince Edward Island, Canada—nor a couple in a third car involved in the incident, were injured, WTOP reported.
