Trailer Pulling Pickups Collide, No Injuries, GOODRICH, December 26, 2023 - At approximately 6:17 pm on December 26, 2023, the driver of a silver Chevy pickup (pulling a trailer with a golf cart inside among other things) was north-bound on US-59. As the driver was passing the north end of Loop 393, the driver of a white Dodge pickup (also pulling a trailer) attempted to pull across the north-bound side to Loop 393, but failed to yield the the Chevy. The Chevy pickup impacted the Dodge pickup's trailer, sending the Dodge trailer into the median. The Dodge pickup pulled into the crossover area and stopped. The Chevy pickup completely lost control and rolled, spilling the contents of its trailer. Allegiance Ambulance Service was dispatched to the scene along with the Goodrich Volunteer Fire Department, and Corporal Darren Brooks with the Polk County Sheriff's Office. Fortunately there were no injuries. The driver of the white Dodge is likely facing a citation for failing to yield to oncoming traffic. The Chevy pickup was recovered by Kwik Tow Wrecker Service out of Livingston, while LakeView Wrecker recovered the trailer and its contents. The Dodge was driven from the scene.
