One Killed, Two Injured in 3-Car Pile-Up

One woman was killed and 2 children were injured in a 3-car accident Monday afternoon. Wet roads were to blame for the accident, which occurred near the intersection of Henry Road and Crestview Road in Anniston. The driver of a Lexus swerved into oncoming traffic, striking a Kia Sportage and another vehicle. A passenger in the Kia was killed in the crash. Two children in the Kia were also injured, one of the children - a 2 year old - is listed in critical condition at Children's Hospital.

Low visibility and slick roads create hazards to drivers in rainy weather. To avoid accidents in inclement weather, motorists should employ the following precautions:

  • Because it takes more space to stop a vehicle on wet roads, drivers should leave extra room between their car and the vehicle in front of them.
  • Motorists should drive with their headlights on at all times to increase their vehicle’s visibility to other drivers on the road.
  • Drivers should slow down and drive below the speed limit when roads are slippery.
