A Virginia State Police report issued Tuesday gives more details of a two-vehicle crash on Interstate 81 that left one person dead.
A preliminary investigation says a car driven by Bridget Widener, 36, of Glade Spring, was traveling northbound near Exit 19 in Abingdon just after 1:15 a.m. Monday when her vehicle went off the left side of the road, struck a guardrail, and came to a stop across the left lane of traffic.
A passing tractor-trailer then struck Widener’s car. She was pronounced dead at the scene. The wreck remains under investigation.
