The accident occurred at the intersection of North Carolina Highway 55 and Durham County Secondary Road 1121 (Cornwallis Road), about a mile and a half south of the Durham city limits. It involved a 1968 Pontiac Grand Prix and a 1966 Ford single unit, closed body, six-wheeled (dual rear) truck. The truckdriver incorrectly estimated the speed and/or distance of the Pontiac from the intersection and pulled from a stop sign into its path. (Author)
