Thirty-seven-year-old Jessica Lyn Wright was killed Monday when her 2009 Ford car was involved in a collision with a tractor trailer and a South Carolina Department of Transportation dump truck. The accident happened on the southbound side of Interstate 85, between the Brockman-McClimon Road and Greenville-Spartanburg International Airport exits, near Greer, South Carolina. The collision, which happened at about 9:50 AM, is still under investigation. Ms. Wright was pronounced dead upon her arrival at Spartanburg Regional Medical Center at 10:53 AM. She had been partially ejected from her vehicle, and was airlifted to the hospital from the scene. The tractor trailer driver and the dump truck driver were both uninjured. At the time of the accident, Sixty-six-year-old Charles Ray Smith, of Casar, North Carolina, was driving the tractor trailer, and Twenty-two-year-old James Michael Pridemore, of nearby Inman, South Carolina, was driving the dump truck. This was the third wreck of the morning along that stretch of I-85, as traffic was backed up throughout the morning hours. One of the earlier wrecks also involved tractor trailers. In that accident, a tractor trailer driver did not slow down in time to avoid traffic ahead of it, ran into a Honda Civic automobile, and then sideswiped another 18-wheeler. The at-fault tractor trailer driver was charged with following too closely. The cause of the accident which caused the fatality is unknown, and the investigation is still ongoing by the South Carolina Highway Patrol, according to Lance Corporal Bill Rhyne.

Hit and Run Trucker Sought by South Carolina Highway Patrol
From rss.justia South Carolina Highway Patrol troopers are searching for a truck driver who hit another driver on I-77 near Rock Hill. The tractor trailer hit a 63-year-old woman’s car on Friday morning at about 6:30 AM, pushing her through the cable barriers and across the interstate, where she collided with another 18 wheeler. The first truck driver did not stop after the accident, and instead kept driving. Troopers are searching for a tractor trailer with a black cab and a silver trailer. Witnesses were unable to recall particular logos or markings on the 18 wheeler. The 63 year old and the driver of the second truck were not seriously injured. Thanks to WSOC television for reporting. Federal Regulators Call for Mandatory Brake Override System
From illinoiscarandtruckaccidentlawyerblog.com In response to the deadly crash and subsequent recall of millions of Toyota and Lexus automobiles due to unintended acceleration, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is proposing that all automakers be required to design a brake-throttle override system into future vehicles. These override systems would prevent unintended accelerations by automatically releasing the throttle when the caras onboard computer senses that the brake pedal is depressed, and thus unable to function. As a car and truck accident attorney in Chicago, I am pleased to see the federal government taking steps to address an important vehicle safety issue. I hope automakers do not resist this key proposal. Particularly as someone who lives in Chicago, with its high volume of traffic, any type of regulation that makes the roads safer is encouraging. Senate Passes Crucial Automobile Safety Bill
From illinoiscarandtruckaccidentlawyerblog.com The U.S. Senate recently approved a bill to boost auto safety regulations and strengthen the penalties for automakers who fail to recall faulty vehicles. Over the past year, many organizations have urged Congress to strengthen auto safety measures in light of the sudden acceleration concerns in Toyota cars. In response to these concerns, a provision of the Senate bill raises fines to $250 million, up from about $17 million, for failing to recall vehicles properly. Unsurprisingly, automakers are challenging this provision. Specifically, automakers are questioning the need for new auto safety measures by pointing to statistics that demonstrate the number of road deaths has fallen to its lowest number since 1949. As a car and truck accident attorney in Chicago, I believe that we should always strive to reduce the number of road deaths in this country. I find it very troubling that automakers are satisfied with the current number of road deaths and do not want to continue trying to reduce this number. We should never be complacent when it comes to automobile safety. I support this Senate bill and hope that its safety measures are successful in reducing the amount of road deaths in the United States.
