Omaha, NE, USA - Jan 05, 2024
Omaha police have identified a woman who died Friday following a nearly head-on crash while driving in the wrong direction on Interstate 680 in west Omaha.
N.S, 40, of Omaha, died at the Creighton University Medical Center-Bergan Mercy, an Omaha police spokesman said Sunday. The driver of another vehicle, R.R, 40, of Omaha, sustained non-life threatening injuries.
Officers were called to the area of I-680 and Blondo Street at 9:46 p.m. for a multiple-vehicle crash. Investigators determined S. was traveling south in the northbound lanes of I-680 without her headlights.
S. narrowly missed colliding with a Nebraska State Patrol trooper, the spokesperson said. She then sideswiped a Chevrolet Cruze before colliding "nearly head-on" with a white Chrysler minivan driven by R."

It looks like she has a lot to live for so I don't think it would be suicide.
My guess is that it was an accident. Possibly intoxicated.

Yeah definitely didnt have the hallmark of a suicide she would have hit someone before he could even get his phone out. Its happenend on that skyway times before but those poeple lucky stopped before merging backwards on the highway

Wow, that's really interesting. I would sure like to see some kind of diagram or map or something if anyone in the know had something to show. Having it be easy to mistake is really terrifying. Maybe a lawsuit? For the 2 kids she left behind? Seems like she was a single mom too.

The problem i see is its a major interstate system and they have no streetlights its pitch black so if you turn a little too early your entering the off ramp into on coming traffic vs just 100 feet up is your on ramp (what she was trying to get on)
