No matter how slow and neat the way you are driving and even you did not crash with other vehicles but crash by your own single vehicle could always happen to you in this modern world with new technology as the vehicle you are driving is like a killing machine.

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
HILLSBORO, Ohio—A 28-year-old southern Ohio woman was killed early yesterday when her car veered off the right side of a road and struck a tree.

Mary B. Hodges of Hillsboro was driving west on Rt. 506 in Highland County about 1:30 a.m. when the crash occurred. After Hodges' car swerved over the center line, she overcorrected and lost control, according to the Wilmington Post of the State Highway Patrol.

Hodges, briefly trapped in her 1994 Ford Probe, was taken by ambulance to Highland District Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.
