They were both headed in the same direction on the northbound lanes, in the lane closest to the median.
Evans swung left to make a wide right turn across the median at a temporary crossover, thinking Ray was farther behind him.

Miller stated she stopped and looked both ways before pulling out but didn’t see the approaching vehicle because of the hill. She stated she pulled too far into the northbound lane and was struck by the semi.

Damage was estimated between $1,000 and $2,500.

IU still working towards sixth banner
Monday night in Atlanta, Louisville won the school’s first National Championship since the year I was born - 1986. This accomplishment is significant to Indiana basketball fans, because the last two times the Cardinals cut down the nets (1980, 1986), the Hoosiers did it the following year. The stat, of course means nothing, other than both schools had strong programs in the 1980s.
