Woodbridge man killed in collision with tractor trailer on I-95
Posted on Nov 30, 2009
A Woodbridge man is dead after an early morning collision with a tractor trailer on Interstate 95. The crash happened in Fairfax County about three-quarters of a mile north of Route 7100 about 2:15 in the morning.
The man, Tomell Grady, 26, was headed north on I-95 when he drove his Hyundai into the back of a northbound tractor trailer. According to police, Grady was traveling at a “high rate of speed”, and his Hyundai ended up underneath the 18-wheeler.
Grady was killed in the accident. Two people from the tractor trailer were taken to a local hospital with minor injuries and released. As a result of the fatal traffic crash, all northbound lanes of I-95 had to be shut down. Traffic was diverted onto the HOV lanes until all lanes of I-95 were reopened around 5:30 in the morning.
The accident is under investigation. It is not known if alcohol or drug use was a factor in the crash.
Speed is a major contributing factor to serious car and truck accidents in Virginia, and traveling at a high rate of speed is one hallmark of an aggressive driver. In about 10 percent of accident cases for drivers age 21 to 65 speed is a main contributing factor. Following too closely – which the driver in this situation may have been doing – is hands-down the number one cause of crashes for U.S. adults.
