Loss of Control of a Vehicle on an Icy Road in Warrington Takes the Life of 84-Year Old North Wales Man
According to news sources, Joseph J. Owsiak, Sr. was traveling east of Bradford Road on County Line Road when he lost control of his vehicle on the icy highway and slid into the westbound lane colliding with a 2007 Dodge van. Mr. Owsiak was pronounced dead at the scene. Our hearts and prayers go out to the family of Joseph J. Owsiak, Sr.
According to the news source, several other vehicles on that highway wound up involved in accidents due to icy road conditions. Unfortunately, we see many catastrophic car accidents when roads are slick and when there is black ice on the road that is not apparent to the innocent eye. As a matter of fact, I had my own black ice accident a few weeks ago. It is important to consider that when driving in freezing and below conditions to pay extra caution to roadway conditions and drive a bit slower and more carefully than normal.
