Officials indicate that the snowy and icy weather conditions were likely a factor leading up to the accident. An 18-wheeler towing a trailer reportedly collided with the back of the Toyota before veering to the right and off of the roadway where it jackknifed and came to a stop. The Toyota, which was still on the roadway at that point, was then struck by a second 18-wheeler towing a trailer. This second collision pushed the Toyota onto the S.H. 135 exit ramp where it came to a stop.

Lottie McNichols incurred suspected severe injuries due to the wreck, while the 34-year-old man reportedly incurred minor injuries; they were each transported to local medical facilities by EMS in order to receive necessary treatment. No other injuries have been reported.
