An SUV drove off the road, flipped over in the woods, and trapped a woman inside, officials said Tuesday evening.

The accident happened on the westbound I-78 near milepost 34 in Bernards Township, N.J., officials said.

The woman was conscious and alert but her legs were trapped. First reponders worked to free her more than two hours later, authorities said.

Medics rushed her to the hospital.

Traffic on I-78 was backed up for several miles.
