A four car collision in Anderson, Indiana sent one elderly woman to the hospital. A vehicle traveling northbound on Indiana 9 was rear ended and pushed into the southbound lanes causing a collision with 74 year old Marilyn Vandergrift. That collision caused Vandergrift to then hit a parked UPS truck whose driver was in the back of the vehicle retrieving a package for delivery. Vandergrift was transported to St. John's Medical Center with minor injuries.

It may be a violation of law for a delivery driver to park his delivery vehicle in the roadway. Motorists also have a duty to maintain a lookout for stopped vehicles in the roadway. Many motorists are injured from this manner.
