There was a story in the paper today about a man injured in a Berlin Township two semi-trucks and van accident on April 21st at the intersection of Jordan Lake and Portland roads. A semi-truck driven by a man from Greenville did not stop at a stop sign on Jordan Lake Road while traveling eastbound on Portland Road and striking another semi-truck. That collision caused the trailer of the semi-truck that was struck to hit a van in the northbound lane of Jordan Lake Road. The driver of the van suffered serious injuries as a result of the crash.
I am very sorry to hear about this tragic accident and hope that the injured driver has a complete and full recovery from his serious injuries.
