Driver causes pileup to keep sofa dry
`A woman who didn’t want the rain to ruin the sofa in the back of her truck caused 24 vehicles to wreck behind her Sunday on Interstate 20 as she swerved to get under an overpass, a police spokesman said. [..]
She changed lanes so rapidly that she cut off cars as she made her way to the shoulder of the road to get under the overpass, White said.
“She cut off two vehicles initially, right away, and that caused those two vehicles to collide with each other,” White said. “We had a total of 24 vehicles at the end of it.”
Eight separate accidents were reported as a direct result of the woman’s poor driving, he said.’
