On September 27, 2021 at approximately 7:50 pm, a female juvenile was driving a 2004 Honda Accord eastbound on SR-162, west of Grubbs Cow Camp. The driver had two passengers; one seated in the right front and one seated in the rear of the Honda. As the driver of the Honda proceeded in an easterly direction, she encountered rain and fog. The driver applied the brakes in order to slow for a left-hand curve in the road and the Honda lost traction on the west surface. The Honda proceeded off the south road edge, traveled down an embankment, struck a boulder, rolled over and came to rest on its roof. The collision resulted in moderate to severe injuries for two of the occupants and one occupant sustained fatal injuries. This collision remains under investigation
