there was also a bad wreck that same day past my house (going north) toward Linc-Drew line–I never saw anything about it published. if anyone got out of that smushed car the ambulance musta went north–there was northbound traffic backed up all the way to my driveway so it happened somewhere north of the curve by Yount Lane—just wondering why that was never published. for some reason 425 has more than it’s share of wrecks–
