10 Day Jail Term for Reckless Driving After Route 40 Wreck

A tractor-trailer driver, Carlos E. B. Reed of Gainesboro Virginia, received a 10 day jail term and $100 plus costs for reckless driving after a September Route 40 crash at Plane No 4 near Frederick. Reed’s jackknifing trailer caused a collision with William A. Lee of Strasburg, seriously injuring Lee and causing about $22,500 in damage. Magistrate Wilbur F. Sheffield said the sentence should deter reckless large-truck operation.
