Road Rage Caused Crash

by Stephen Bilkis

According to an Idaho police report obtained by a source, the possible reason for an accident is due to road rage. Aggressive driving is thought to be the reason why an accident which involved four cars and a dump truck on interstate 84 occurred. Interstate 84 was gridlocked for hours as a result of the truck accident.

The report explains that this accident snowballed and created a chain reaction. This meant that different members of the emergency services needed to work together. Motorcycle police controlled the traffic and various ISP officers needed to investigate the accident scene.

When the VW stopped, the dump truck attempted to swerve out of the way of it and tipped over through the barrier. According to eye witness reports, the truck spilt the entire load of a tone of gravel over the road at around 2:30 PM. The driver of the truck received only minor injuries.

Truck Carrying Whiskey Overturns

by Stephen Bilkis

A vehicle carrying whiskey overturned due to one of the tires bursting. Many residents of Queens found this accident fairly amusing.

Many people helped themselves to the cartons of whiskey which were spread over the street. Although most of the shipment was damaged and ended up down the drain, there were plenty of other undamaged bottles which were claimed by other people. Some people even took the broken bottles with them, presumably for a souvenir.

At around 6 am in the morning the truck carrying whiskey started on its trip. However, when it reached an intersection in Makali, the front right tire burst. This caused the driver to lose control of the truck, explains the police. The driver attempted to avoid hitting an electricity substation by steering sharply. This caused the truck to turn over.

by Stephen Bilkis

A bicyclist was involved in a serious traffic accident along County Route 214. The county sheriff’s office closed the road to investigate the cause of the accident.

A report obtained by the press has found that the bicyclist was an 18 year old male. He was traveling along Ryan Road at about 2:30 PM. When he reached the intersection with CR 214 he was hit by the oil truck. It’s not clear whether or not the accident was caused by the bike rider, or tank driver.

The investigation is currently ongoing. However, it’s not thought that the truck driver will receive any charges. It’s likely that the accident was caused because the bicyclist did not slow down and look at the intersection before crossing.

Teen Dies in New JerseyTruck Accident

by Stephen Bilkis

A 16-year old youth died as a result of injuries sustained in a truck accident. The accident occurred March 28 at about 8:30 p.m. As the young man was crossing the street, a recycling truck was making a turn and then struck the youth within moments afterwards. The 54-year old truck driver immediately stopped and dialed 911. When the first responders arrived, they stabilized the youth and then transported him to Newark Wayne Community Hospital. The hospital staff did all that they could to treat the injured teens severe head wounds, but those injuries were too severe. The 16-year old, high school sophomore later died. Accidents like this are rare in The Bronx and Brooklyn.

A police spokesman indicated to a reporter that while their investigation is ongoing, as a result of their investigative efforts thus far they have determined that neither drugs nor alcohol appear to have been a factor. They have also investigated the truck for any indications of mechanical failure, and have found nothing wrong with the truck. The fact that it was dark and the youth was crossing the street outside of a designated crosswalk continues to be looked at. By all indications thus far into the investigation, this appears to have been a tragic accident.

As part of our investigative coverage, a source also learned from the local high school principal, that the entire school in this small community was in a state of shock. As a credit to the local school system, when administrators first learned of the tragedy, they collaborated both internally, and with counselors so they could be prepared to provide assistance to those students who would have questions about the incident. Fortunately, they were prepared and had a staff of counselors available when students returned to class. The principal went on to add that, “He was a student who had a great sense of humor, had a lot of energy and had a lot of friends as a result. We’re all going to miss him very much.”
