On March 26, 2009 an unidentified 20-year-old woman was killed in an accident involving a Coca Cola 18-wheeler delivery truck. The accident occurred in the 1500 block of NE Loop 820 in Fort Worth, TX. Authorities say that the woman was driving a Buick sedan eastbound when she was had to brake suddenly for to avoid hitting slow moving traffic. Upon applying the brakes, the young woman lost control of the car and drove onto the shoulder and swerved back into the eastbound traffic, where her car was struck by the 18-wheeler. The 18-wheeler pushed the Buick into a concrete median, and the truck burst through the median into the westbound traffic.
The woman driving the Buick died at the scene, and the driver of the Coca Cola delivery truck was transported to John Peter Smith Hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.
