Maybe took a left on garden street in the wrong lane and then continued up the ramp to northbound I-110. I sure hope the young lady pulls through okay. Sending good thoughts.
Speculation, but it would not surprise me if the wrong way driver went the wrong way down Gregory Street, the wrong way around the I-110 Loop for Exit 1C, then onto I-110 southbound going north. The wrong way driver would be able to stay on the right and never realize they were going the wrong way.
Joni, I am praying for her. So sorry this happened to her.
I know the young woman from Pace. She’s currently in the ICU after surgery, and will need more. I’ll keep praying for her and her family and friends
