Unidentified Tractor Trailer Runs Damages Vehicle
According to the Pennsylvania State Police at Frackville, around 11:30am, Monday, a vehicle driven by Heather Stec, 45, of Reston, VA was traveling in the left passing lane of Interstate 81 southbound in the area of MM 128.
As Stec was attempting to pass a tractor trailer, the truck driver did not realize Stec's vehicle was there. The tractor trailer engaged the left signal to move to the left lane to pass another truck tractor in the right lane and in doing so, drove directly into the path of Stec. As Stec moved into the left lane when it wasn't clear, the tractor trailer impacted with the front right passenger side of Stec's vehicle, causing minor damage. The unidentified tractor trailer kept traveling south on Intersate 81.
Stec was able to drive off the right west shoulder to a place of safety and stop.
