Yesterday, December 11th, 2013, a traffic collision took place on I-40W that ultimately claimed the life of one of the drivers involved.  65 year old Jackie Maloney Keeney of Amarillo was traveling West on I-40 when she struck an enclosed box trailer being pulled by a semi-truck.  Her car traveled off the road and onto the grass median where it caught fire.  She was taken to the hospital, and late
