Another friend of mine (see "Wrong Way Driver") was hit by a lady who was checking her mail on the wrong side of the road and then crossed back over and didn't see or hear him. Jack (30 years old) ended up having his left leg amputated below the knee.
Troopers reported that Jackie L. Morgan, 30, of Newburg, had been riding a 2003 Harley Davidson motorcycle southbound on Highway J when he crossed the center line at 4:55 p.m. and struck a 2004 Cadillac driven by Daquanna J. Snider, 57, of Waynesville, who was also headed southbound but had pulled off the roadway. Both vehicles sustained minor damage and Morgan’s motorcycle came to rest off the right side of the roadway.
Snider was not hurt, but Morgan suffered serious injuries and was flown by a Lifeline helicopter ambulance to St. John’s Hospital in Springfield.
Troopers later released an updated report indicating that following additional investigation, they determined that Snider had been stopped on the northbound shoulder facing southbound when she entered the roadway, crossed the centerline, and struck Morgan’s southbound motorcycle.
Both vehicles were driven to a nearby residence. Both drivers had been wearing helmets or seat belts, troopers reported.
