One Injured In Wayne Crash Tuesday Morning

WAYNE, PA – A vehicle crashed Tuesday afternoon in the Wayne section of Radnor Township, injuring one and leading emergency responders to warn drivers of how wet leaves on the road can create dangerous conditions.

According to the Radnor Fire Company, a vehicle crashed in the area of Conestoga Road and Brookside Avenue at about 11:56 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 24.

When crews arrived, the driver and sole occupant had safely exited the vehicle, which came to rest on its driver side following the crash.

The driver was, however, taken to an area hospital for evaluation of non-life threatening injuries.

The fire company is warning drivers of the road conditions created by the combination of fallen leaves and wet roads.

When leaves fall on wet roads, they essentially turn into mini ice patches and pose potentially deadly road hazards.

AARP says drivers who are experiencing wet roads with fallen leaves on it should slow down and if possible follow in the tracks of vehicles in front of them to stay on dry areas of the road.
