Christine Wilson was driving a white GMC Yukon westbound in the right lane near the 61 mile-marker when the collision occurred at approximately 9:46 a.m. on September 17.

Both westbound lanes of I-64 were closed while Kentucky State Police processed the scene. The roadway reopened after responding personnel cleared the area.
