POULSBO, Wash. — The Washington state patrol released video of what they say was the result of distracted driving in Poulsbo.

Troopers say a driver on SR 305 didn’t see the car in front of him pull over for an ambulance and slammed right into the back of the car.

The distracted driver's car went airborne.

Investigators say the man admitted to looking down to see a text message before he crashed on Friday.

The ambulance was able to avoid the collision and its driver stopped to help.
