Spencer County Car Accident Results in Death of Two Teens
Tristatehomepage.com reported Wednesday evening that two teens were killed in a motor vehicle accident U.S. Highway 231 just south of Gentryville Wednesday morning. The report explained that the two teens were lifeguards on their way to work when the accident occurred.
The teen driver was attempting to pass a motor vehicle on the left hand side of the highway when the car collided head on with a mini-van that was oncoming from the opposite direction. At the time of the accident, the teens' car was approaching a hill crest that made them unable to see the oncoming mini-van. At that location, the highway was marked as a "no passing" zone.
