Woman Killed in Crash with 18-Wheeler in Cleburne, Texas
A 68-year-old woman, whose name has not yet been released, died at the hospital after she was involved in a head-on collision with a tractor-trailer in Cleburne, TX.
The accident occurred on U.S. 67, a two-lane highway with no divider, near Farm Road 4. She was driving her 2001 Honda southbound when she unexpectedly veered into northbound traffic. She was flown to a hospital after the crash with the big rig but tragically did not survive. The driver of the truck, a 50-year-old man from Cleburne, was treated at the hospital for injuries that were not life-threatening.
I am sorry to hear about this tragic accident. There are many reasons for cars to veer in another lane (fatigue, distractions, cell phones…). The police investigators will probably never be able to figure this one out. My condolences to her family. And I hope for a speedy recovery for the truck driver.
