A 47-year-old woman was injured after a car crash occurred on Highway 41 when an erratic driver struck two cars in the southbound lanes of the road.

Authorities allegedly received multiple phone calls about this driver on the roadway but fellow motorists. Witnesses stated that he was not stopping at stop signs, driving with flashers on, and reaching speeds of 90 to 100 mph.

The driver then tried to go in between two vehicles in the southbound lane and collided with them. The woman suffered back and neck injuries in the accident. When authorities arrived at the scene, the 64-year-old minivan driver attempted to leave the scene, but he was arrested.

A two-car accident in Manitowoc County on Tuesday morning left one woman killed and three others injured.

According to Manitowoc County officials, the accident occurred as a 34-year-old Sheboygan County woman was traveling in her  Toyota Corolla and she struck a patch of ice on the road.

This caused her to lose control of the vehicle and skid into a Ford Explorer driven by a 23-year-old man. The woman was killed from injuries sustained in the crash and the 35-year-old male passenger in her car was seriously injured. The two people in the Explorer, a 23-year man and 6-year-old girl, suffered non-life threatening injury.

Our condolences are with the friends and family of the victim during this difficult time.

The number of fatal car accidents that occurred in 2011 was released in a report from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation.

In Sheboygan County in 2011, there were seven fatal car accidents that occurred on the roadways. Of these accidents, three of them were alcohol-related and one was a pedestrian hit-and-run accident.

According to officials, the number of alcohol related crashes is usually 50 percent of the total fatal wrecks. Although this year’s number is lower, officials are not happy with it because drunk driving crashes can be prevented by taking a cab home instead. Statewide there were 567 fatal crashes.

The lack of snow in parts of Wisconsin has caused the cancellation of the candlelight ski events.  More than 30 ski events have been scheduled and if they can not be turned into hiking events, they will be called off.

The Department of Natural Resources has stated that there is not enough snow to hold the events in southern and central Wisconsin. Northern Wisconsin is not experiencing this issue. Five of these events begin on Saturday and officials have stated that it is a good idea to call ahead of time.
