DICKSON COUNTY, Tenn. (WTVF) — A Tennessee Highway Patrol sergeant and another driver are expected to recover after a wrong-way crash on Interstate 40 in Dickson County, according to THP.
THP said Sgt. Goddard, who works in the agency’s Memphis District, was returning from a training session in Nashville on Thursday when he encountered a wrong-way driver on I-40.
According to THP, an elderly man was traveling the wrong way on the interstate when he collided with Goddard near mile marker 176, close to the Interstate 840 interchange.
Both Goddard and the other driver were injured in the crash. THP said both are expected to make a full recovery.
September 11, 2001 is a day most associate with terror and tragedy. Austin Pollack shares a story from that day about hope and persistence: the effort to save a little girl’s life – with an organ donation. The problem? The young patient was in Houston, and her life-saving liver here in Nashville. With the grounding of all civilian aircraft, how could it be done? “Nobody ever said this isn’t possible.”
