Police now know the cause of death of a Barren County man involved in a single-vehicle wreck that occurred Tuesday about 15 miles south of Glasgow.
David S. Carver, 40, died from multiple injuries and blunt force trauma to his chest, said Barren County Deputy Sheriff Kevin Wilson.
Carver was traveling southeast on Ky. 87 around 5:40 p.m. when he lost control of his 1998 Toyota Tacoma pickup, according to a sheriff’s department report.
The cause of the wreck has not yet been determined, even though evidence at the scene may indicate alcohol had been a factor in the cause of the wreck, Wilson said.
He anticipates wrapping up his investigation into the cause of the wreck as quickly as within a week.
Funeral services for Carver are set to begin after 4 p.m. Thursday, with funeral services beginning at 11 a.m. at Goad Funeral Home in Scottsville. Burial will be in the Pleasant Home Cemetery in Barren County.
Carver’s death is the first automobile fatality to have occurred in Barren County this year. In 2008, there were seven fatalities, said Trooper Charles Swiney, public information officer with the Kentucky State Police in Bowling Green.
It is not known if Carver was wearing a seat belt at the time of the crash.
The use of seat belts is required by law in Kentucky. People who are found by police officers not to be wearing their seat belts can be fined $25.
“Not having your child restricted in a car seat is $50,” Swiney said.
Those whose children are not in booster seats will be fined $30, he said.
The state police conducts campaigns often to make sure people are wearing their seat belts.
“This weekend federal overtime monies have been alloted and we are going to have extra troopers out for the weekend on overtime,” Swiney said.
The state police also check to make sure motorists are wearing their seat belts on Memorial Day during the “Click It or Ticket It” campaign.
“You have a better chance of surviving or being injured less if you’re wearing your seat belt, in my opinion,” Swiney said.
