accidents

I hope you weren't expecting a package from UPS.  Troopers are continuing the investigation into Thursday morning's commercial motor vehicle crash on Interstat e 84 involving a UPS semi truck pulling a set of double trailers.

We all get tired of hearing how we are supposed to drive carefully,  exercise caution etc etc.  But sometimes it bears repeating.

There were two major accidents yesterday on Clearwater Ave.in Kennewick just minutes apart. The 1st accident a pedestrian was killed when an 84 year old man lost control of his vehicle and struck and killed a 60 year old Kennewick man. The 84 year old claims the accelerator got stuck and that is why he lost control of his vehicle.

A recent study of accidents involving the gas pedals of vehicles yielded some age and gender-specific results.
