Cluster Mess on 59, GOODRICH, March 1, 2024 - At approximately 3:55 pm on March 1, 2024, the driver of a black Dodge Ram pickup (pulling a travel trailer) was north-bound on US-59 (just north of the Trinity River Bridge). An older model tan Chevy Trailblazer (pulling a vehicle trailer with a full size pickup on the trailer), was in the next lane and blew a tire. This caused the Chevy Blazer to lose control, swerve into the next lane and strike the Dodge travel trailer. This caused the Dodge to spin out of control and come to rest on the side of the left lane. The travel trailer turned over (Dodge remained upright). The Blazer jack knifed into the grass where it came to rest. Allegiance Ambulance Service was dispatched to the scene along with Trooper Cesar Davila with The Texas Highway Patrol. There were no reported injuries.
