Cars land in ditch due to icy roads

MEDFORD, ORE. — Jackson County Sheriff’s deputies responded to two separate vehicles in the same ditch Friday morning.

The first crash happened on the 4000 block of North Foothills Road around 5:30 involving a pick-up truck.

The second just after 9 o’clock involving a dodge sedan.

Deputies say in both crashes, the drivers lost control with icy roads and took out curve signs.

Fortunately, no one was injured.

But deputies say this is a good reminder that you should take it slow when temperatures drop and black ice becomes more frequent on area roadways.
