An 80-year-old passenger of a minivan died in Monday afternoon’s collision involving a semi-truck at the intersection of Rivergate Parkway and Bluebird Drive in Goodlettsville.
The investigation shows that the semi was traveling south on Rivergate Parkway when the northbound minivan made a left turn in front of it. The semi veered to the right and crashed into the sign of Chicago Style Gyro.
The passenger in the minivan died at the scene. Efforts are underway to locate his family. The drivers of the minivan and semi were taken to a local hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The preliminary contributing factor to this crash appears to be failure to yield on the part of the minivan.
