Virginia State Police car and 3 other vehicles wreck on I-64


Posted on Feb 11, 2009

A traffic accident on Interstate 64 in Newport News involving three vehicles and a Virginia State Police patrol car caused traffic problems on February 11, 2009.  Two lanes of I-64 had to be shut down and the exit ramp to northbound J. Clyde Morris Boulevard was closed as a result of the crash.

 

One motorist sustained minor injuries in the accident and drove to the hospital in her own car.  The trooper had to be transported to a local hospital to treat her injuries but is expected to make a full recovery.

 

The cause of the accident is unknown and is still under investigation.  This is the second accident in two days involving a Virginia State Police officer.  The previous day, a state trooper on a motorcycle clipped the side of a car that was driving illegally on the I-64 shoulder.

 

The officer on the motorcycle was taken to the local hospital for x-rays after falling from her bike.  The woman driving illegally on the shoulder claimed to be late for a test at Hampton University and was charged with improper passing on the shoulder.
