Two Dead in South Carolina Log Truck Accident

According to NewsChannel 15, two are dead in a motor vehicle accident in Marlboro County, South Carolina (SC).

The SC truck accident occurred at approximately 3:30 pm, Tuesday, April 26, 2011, on Aaron Temple Road in the Wallace Community. As per the coroner, a 56 year-old and 57 year-old, both of Wallace, SC, were killed in the truck crash. The 56 year-old ran stop sign on Aaron Temple Road and hit a log truck. Both men died on the scene. The South Carolina Highway Patrol was awaiting a tow truck to arrive on the scene at press time to remove the log truck so investigators could analyze the accident scene.

SC truck accidents like this can be devastating, and they highlight the importance of obeying rules on the road. It's a shame to think what tragedy could have been averted if only one driver, in this case, had come to a complete stop at a stop sign.
