3-13-24 Douglas Theroff and Tyler Owens were involved in a traffic crash in Taylorville Township. Theroff was traveling northbound on County Highway #1 (Township Road 1250 E), and had stopped at the stop sign, with intersecting roadway Illinois Route 48.

(There are no traffic control signs for the eastbound and westbound traffic on IL Rte 48.) Theroff stated he stopped at the stop sign and watched two vehicles, heading west, pass through the intersection. He advised he looked both directions again, did not see any traffic coming, so he began to proceed north, across the highway. Owens stated, as he was approaching the intersection, he noticed Theroff begin to proceed. Owen advised he swerved towards the left, in an attempt to avoid being struck by Theroff. Theroff struck Owens in the intersection. All occupants refused medical treatment at the scene. Owen’s vehicle was towed from the scene.
