I read a story in the news today about a fatal US-23 semi-truck accident that occurred near Silver Lake Road by Ann Arbor on Tuesday, October 20th. According to the Michigan State Police, a 19-year-old driver was southbound in her Pontiac Grand Prix on US-23 when she allegedly lost control of her vehicle and sideswiped a semi-truck. She then allegedly crossed the median and collided with a northbound Chrysler Concord, driven by a 19-year-old Ann Arbor man.

While the truck driver was unhurt, the man in the Concord had to be cut free from the car and rushed to a local hospital for treatment of his serious injuries. The 19-year-old female driver did not survive the crash. The police are still investigating this accident.

I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and hope the injured man has a complete and full recovery from his serious injuries. My condolences to the family of the 19-year-old woman for their loss.
