Another Pedestrian Fatality on Jefferson County Roads

Thursday evening around 6:45 on Dixie Highway 58-year-old Clara Watts was struck while attempting to cross the road.  This occurred near the intersection of Dixie and Lewiston Place.  After being struck Ms. Watts was transported to University Hospital where she died not long after she arrived.

The investigation shows that a Ford was traveling northbound on Dixie Highway when Ms. Watts stepped into the car’s path.  The investigation also reports that Ms. Watts was wearing dark clothes at the time of the accident.  Louisville Metro Police Department Traffic Unit has reported that no charges are expected to be filed against the driver of the Ford.

This is a dangerous time of the year for pedestrians  as it is getting darker earlier.  Particularly during rush hour when drivers may be more distracted pedestrians need exercise more caution
