    Second fatal accident on this stretch of 220 in a week. Speeding is a large contributor. A more visible State Police presence would help.

      The first fatal crash was not related to speed, as the vehicle in which the young person was killed with the third, in a line of four vehicles. Spatial reasoning and objects sticking off of the truck were the cause. This was reported by witnesses, of whom, there were several.
