I saw no skid marks...leading me to believe that the driver had a 'medical emergency' such as heart attack, stroke, seizure, diabetic issue or whatever.
Without regard to the physical damage, I hope the driver survived. Perhaps Monday's paper will have the whole story.

Do you still have the pictures? If you do, perhaps you would send them to me.The driver is belived to have been involved in other accidentsof this type. On this occasion he claimed to have hit ICE.

Is there a site where one can find out about car accidents in Sumter?
Saturday night we saw two within a mile of each other on I-75 north (one car was on its roof)and another on on Rte. 44 near the Russell Stover store -- with 6 or 8 emergency vehicles and a helicopter. Couldn't find anything in the paper ...this was all seen within 10 minutes.
