CRASH IN THE CONSTRUCTION ZONE

Elyria – A four vehicle crash on Route 57 Saturday afternoon sent two people to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Witnesses say a brown GMC van was traveling westbound on Route 57 from Abbe Road when he slammed into the back of a Pontiac Grand Prix. The Grand Prix was pushed by the van into the rear end of a silver pick up truck – the pick up truck was then pushed into the rear end of a black Lexus. All vehicles were in stopped traffic waiting for a traffic light at the time of the crash.

Two people were transported with complaints of back and neck injuries by LifeCare Paramedics to Elyria Memorial Hospital.

Elyria Police Officers had to close the westbound lane for about an hour while Mug’s Elyria Towing untangled the vehicles.

people need to pay attention in the construction zone. also i am seeing the need for people to pay attention to the lane changes at the intercections of 57. i keep seeing people turning in lanes that you can no longer turn in and causing major backups when they try to renter the right lane. people need to pay atention before someone gets hurt

Sounds like James and his old people comments are back. Why don't you do something constructive like check out accident reports. You will probably see that the majority of accidents are not caused by elderly people. Give it a rest already and stop using TMC NEWS as a forum to bash the elderly.
