Roane County, TN (December 1, 2020)  The Tennessee Highway Patrol responded on December 1st to a single vehicle crash that occurred on Roane County’s Cedar Grove. The accident occurred when the driver of a 2005 Honda Civic ran off the road due to a medical issue. The driver was then flown by Lifestar to the University of Tennessee Medical Center for care. Additional details including the extent of property damage caused by the crash are still uncertain.

Drivers with health issues like heart disease and high blood pressure are much more likely to end up in deadly crashes than other motorists. The Federal Highway Administration has found that car crashes caused by medical injuries are relatively rare and represent only 1.3 percent of all motorist accidents. Eighty four percent of the drivers who experienced medical emergencies before crashes experienced blackouts or seizures.
