Nov 7, 2005 | The Roanoke Times
A major accident on Interstate 81 Sunday afternoon sent three people to theAdvertisement hospital and blocked traffic for about three hours, said state police spokesman Sgt. Bob Carpentieri.
The accident occurred about 4 p.m. near the 202.4 mile marker when a tractor-trailer approached backed-up northbound traffic and swerved into the right lane, striking a Toyota van and setting off a chain reaction involving six other vehicles, Carpentieri said.
The van's driver, was flown to the University of Virginia Medical Center. Two other people suffered non-life-threatening injuries and were taken to Stonewall Jackson Hospital in Lexington, he said.
