Blinding sun may have triggered first in series of accidents

Highway troopers believe sun in the eyes of one driver led to an Oconee County accident this morning — the first in a series of accidents.  Three others occurred within moments on the two-lane W. Cherry Road on the bridge between Oconee and Pickens.  According to trooper Ridgeway, two people in the first accident sustained minor injuries.  At morning rush, W. Cherry is busy as it is used by people coming to and from Clemson University and other points.
