PER CURIAM:*

Hector Gabriel Gonzalez appeals his sentence after pleading guilty to possession with intent to distribute cocaine. He argues that the district court erred in failing to apply the safety-valve provision of U.S.S.G. § 5C1.2.

Gonzalez argues that the district court erred when it failed to award him a downward adjustment for being a minor participant. The record indicates that Gonzalez played an integral role in transporting the cocaine. He caused an accident with the trooper’s vehicle in order to protect the load vehicle. The district court did not clearly err in finding that Gonzalez was not entitled to a downward adjustment for minor participation. See United States v. Zuniga, 18 F.3d 1254, 1261 (5th Cir. 1994).

AFFIRMED.
