The tractor-trailer was eastbound on East Lake Road and stopped at the Route 39 intersection.  He then proceeded into the intersection, turning left (north) as Renee Morris\u2019 car was southbound on Route 39 and her car struck the rear axle area of the trailer portion of the tractor-trailer in a \u201cright angle\u201d type collision.  Mr. Reed was cited with Failure to Yield the Right of Way at a Stop Sign; however, the weather conditions were a contributing factor as a dense fog covered the area.
