THREE VEHICLES WERE IN AN ACCIDENT LAST FRIDAY AFTERNOON AT SUMMIT AND MAIN STREETS AND WE JUST GOT THE REPORT TODAY.
SHAYLENE LAI, 25, OF MAQUOKETA WAS GOING SOUTH ON MAIN.
MARILYN KRAMER OF MAQUOKETA STOPPED AT THE STOP SIGN AND
DID NOT SEE THE LAI VEHICLE MAKE A RIGHT TURN ON TO MAIN.
AT THE SAME TIME, THE ACCIDENT INVOLVING THOSE TWO VEHICLES CAUSED LAI'S VEHICLE TO HIT A SEMI-TRUCK DRIVEN BY AN ILLINOIS MAN THAT WAS GOING NORTH AND TURNING ON TO SUMMIT. NO INJURIES.
KRAMER WAS CHARGED. $4,000 DAMAGE TO LAI'S 1997 MAZDA,
REGISTERED TO A DUBUQUE PERSON. $500 DAMAGE TO KRAMER'S 2000 CHEVY AND $8,000 DAMAGE TO THE SEMI. THIS IS THE INTERSECTION
THAT MANY WOULD LIKE TO SEE HAVE TRAFFIC SIGNALS, BUT THERE IS
NOT ENOUGH LAND TO DO THIS WITHOUT GREAT EXPENSE.
