Police say David Aldrich, 53, and Kimberly Aldrich, 50, were driving on Interstate 65 south when the accident occurred. In the lane next to them, Timothy Sheehan, 52, was driving his 18-wheeler. According to WHAS11, for reasons unknown to the police, the Aldrich’s motorcycle veered into the 18-wheeler’s lane, clipping the rear left fender.

Kimberly Aldrich was transported to University of Louisville Hospital in serious condition, but with non-life threatening injuries, according to WHAS11.
