August 28, 2024 – A deceased driver was discovered Tuesday evening by TDOT workers who were collecting trash along the side of I-40 West near Central Pike following a recent crash.
The preliminary investigation indicates Jeffrey Weir, 62, of Lebanon, was traveling westbound when, for reasons unknown, he lost control of his Ford Fusion. The car crossed lanes of travel, struck a guardrail, continued down an embankment and came to rest in the woods.
Weir was reported missing by his family to the Lebanon Police Department earlier Tuesday after they hadn’t seen him since Saturday.
There were no signs of impairment at the scene.
