Rain has fallen in this area for most of the day; this has lowered visibility and made the road incredibly wet. Police believe that weather did play a role in this accident.
“People need to slow down. We see wrecks all the time. They go around that curve too fast. Not always fatal,” said Bennis Dunn, who lives in the area. “We’ve seen three or four wrecks around there. Usually not deadly. But there have been several wrecks in that area. It’s sad, just sad.”
Traffic was down to one lane. No word yet who the victims are.
