Man On Lawnmower Killed In Collisio

2007 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

POSTED: 5:13 pm EDT August 2, 2007

LAURENS COUNTY, S.C. -- A man riding a lawnmower was hit and killed by a car last night.

It happened around 10:20 p.m. on Highway 66 in Laurens County about two miles from Joanna.

Troopers said that Timothy Woodward was driving the lawnmower in the middle of the road when he was hit.

Woodward was thrown off the mower and died at the scene.

Troopers think alcohol may have been a factor.

At first I wasn't going to accept this one but I found another reference at http://www.thestate.com/regional-news/story/135968.html that made me change my mind. Since the driver of the car wasn't injured and said he couldn't see the lawnmower in the dark then I'll accept this one. Thanks for sending it in.

I see no reason not to keep this story. A lawn mower isn't meant to be driven down the middle of a street at night!
