RICHLAND CO., Ill.—It would appear that someone was taking advantage of the holiday today by enjoying the potential day off a bit too much, and this shot of County Road 400 N in Richland County is a bit of evidence:

It appears as though someone ran right off Highway 130 headed north toward Olney, and flattened everything but the stop sign.
So if you’re out and about on this holiday, remember…some people will be irresponsible, and drive after drinking or ingesting substances; some people will text or message while driving (we see people swerve all over the 20-plus counties we cover); some people just shouldn’t be driving at all for other reasons….like not paying attention in driver’s ed. Regardless of how the stuff shown here in the pic got flattened, we urge everyone to use caution when driving during the holidays. Be safe out there!
