Authorities say that the accident happened around 2:30 a.m. on Route U, about one mile south of Route B.

Keeping the Road Safe is Everyone’s Responsibility

It is essential to follow all driving laws and road conditions when driving. If you see any vehicle or driver that looks dangerous, keep your distance. If you see a vehicle weaving in and out of the lanes, following too closely, or traveling at a higher rate of speed, move over a few lanes and get out of their way.

This incident serves as a reminder to approach curves with caution and adjust speed to road conditions. Always prioritize safety to prevent accidents.
