Multiple Truck Accidents on I-664 Injure Motorist, Virginia State Troo
Posted on Sep 26, 2010
Two serious accidents near Chesapeake, Va. injured both a Virginia State Trooper and at least one motorist. The first accident occurred near Dock Landing Road. A vehicle, traveling at a high rate of speed, nearly hit a motorcycle officer who was conducting a traffic stop. The vehicle then lost control, went off the road and into a stand of trees.
Shortly after the initial accident the driver of a large tractor trailer failed to notice that traffic was stopped due to the accident. In an attempt to avoid a further collision the driver swerved and flipped his truck onto its side in the middle of the interstate. A second large truck then slammed into the flipped truck, causing another crash that sent this truck onto its side as well.
At least one motorist was taken to the hospital. The driver of the vehicle that caused the original accident has been charged with following too closely. The driver of the tractor trailer is also expected to be charged for his role in the serious accident.
One day before, very near the above accident, a Virginia State Trooper was hit by a semi-truck. The trooper is still recovering from serious injuries at Norfolk General Hospital. The driver of this tractor trailer has been charged with reckless driving.
The staff and attorneys at Tavss Fletcher hope that all injured parties are on their way to recovering fully and quickly from their injuries.
