What a dumbass.
HENDERSON CO., KY (WFIE) -
A section of the Pennyrile Parkway is back open after a deadly wreck.
It happened around 6:25 Tuesday morning on the Pennyrile Parkway near mile marker 76.
Deputies say it started in the northbound lanes when a pickup truck rear-ended a car while both were trying to pass a semi.
The pickup then fled the scene by turning around and heading down the southbound Pennyrile. We're told the driver of the car took off after it to try to get the license plate number.
The truck tried to exit off the southbound ramp, at exit 425, from the far left lane, but ended up hitting the guardrail as it tried to go around another car. The impact caused the truck to flip several times before coming to a rest on its top.
Deputies say the man driving the truck was thrown from the vehicle during the wreck and was pronounced dead at the scene. According to the coroner's office, an autopsy is scheduled for Wednesday morning in Louisville.
