Lt. Gov. Coleman hits deer on Bluegrass Parkway

FRANKFORT, Ky – Crashes between vehicles and deer are most common this time of year especially in rural areas, and sometimes they are unavoidable; just ask Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman. Coleman posted on her Facebook page Wednesday morning, “Last night, while traveling home from Bowling Green, my security detail and I were involved in a car wreck along the Bluegrass Parkway. We are okay. The vehicle and deer are not.” She also saluted the law enforcement agencies that arrived on the scene. “Thank you to the Nelson County Sheriff’s Office and other first responders. As always, I am indebted to Kentucky State Police for keeping me safe.” This should serve as a message for everyone to exercise caution on the roads, especially during the last three months of the year.
