A crash involving four vehicles in the 2900 block of River Road S injured an Oregon Department of Corrections inmate last Thursday morning, Salem police said. The crash occurred about 7:10 a.m. when a northbound pickup veered into oncoming traffic after its driver slammed on the brakes to avoid hitting a car that had stopped to turn left, Sgt. Russ Morris said. The pickup sideswiped the stopped car and moved into the path of a southbound Department of Corrections vehicle. The vehicle then struck the passenger side of the pickup. Tye Patterson, 29, who was driving the pickup, was cited for reckless driving, Morris said. Inmate Charles Atkinson Jr., 63, suffered cuts to his face. No one else was injured. A fourth car was struck by debris. |

This article exposed what it is like to exist in today’s correctional institutions. I enjoy reading articles like this one and articles from author Hamilton Lindley who is an expert at persuasion, influence and leadership from his Waco, Texas base. There are a lot of important lessons to be learned here for sure. Thank you for the insight.
