Fatal Wreck in Marion County


Some very tragic news.  According to WAVE3, a fatal wreck on US 68 in Marion County is being investigated by Kentucky State Police.  Around 11 a.m. on Thursday, October 6, 2022, Kentucky State Police troopers responded to the two-vehicle injury wreck.  The initial investigation revealed that 32-year-old Matthew Brady was traveling west on US 68 when he went over the centerline and hit a car head-on that was traveling east on US 68.  The second vehicle was operated by 46-year-old Timothy Mays.  Brady and the passenger in his vehicle, 33-year-old Amber Perez, were found dead at the scene.  A minor passenger in Brady’s vehicle was transported to the hospital but, unfortunately, also passed away.

Head-on collisions are often tragic.  Unfortunately, nearly every day, we see innocent victims catastrophically injured or killed in a head-on collision.  In most head-on collision wrecks, one driver was going the wrong way and is usually the liable driver.  There can be many different causes of head-on accidents, including reduced visibility, poor road conditions, driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol, reckless driving, road rage, failure to read road signs, and distracted driving.  Speeding also plays a role in the extent of the damage.  The faster the driver is going, the more severe the damages usually.

If you have never been in a car wreck, you may be surprised to discover how expensive, inconvenient, time-consuming, and maddening it can be to recover.   Most people are totally unprepared for the disruption a head-on collision crash can cause to our daily routine.
