This Saturday there were two separate accidents that claimed lives on the Indiana Toll Road.

The first accident involved a 42-year-old semi-truck driver who collided into the back of a horse trailer. The horse trailer had become disconnected from the motor vehicle it was secured to, and the driver struck the trailer killing himself on impact.

The second car accident on the Indiana Toll Road was caused by a driver losing control of his vehicle on the slick roads. The roads were icy and created hazardous driving conditions. The vehicle was pushed from the right lane to the left lane after losing control, ultimately striking a semi-truck.
