HANOVER COUNTY, Va. — Hanover investigators identified the woman killed in a multi-vehicle crash on Mountain Road Wednesday as 33-year-old Crystal R. Fix, of Montpelier. Fix was driving the 2015 Mazda that collided head-on with a Peterbilt Tractor near Dunn Road.

The Peterbilt Tractor and trailer jack-knifed and collided head-on with a 2015 Mazda 4-door sedan that was also traveling east on Mountain Road.”
