Two die in Thursday crash

Tennessee Highway Patrol Trooper William Garrett said drugs were found in a car involved in a fatal traffic accident Thursday that killed Travis R. Harvey, 25, Lenoir City and his girlfriend Elizabeth D. Lindsey, 26, of Knoxville.
Garrett investigated the accident and said what he believes to be marijuana and another unidentified substance were found in the car.
"We’re pretty sure it’s marijuana," he said in reference to the substance found inside the vehicle. According to the trooper, two bags of material were located at the scene.
He added a pipe he thinks is covered in marijuana residue and more than one white pill with the name scratched off were found in the car.
He said he thinks the pills might be prescription medication. Garrett noted a second bag contained an unknown brown substance.
The driver and passenger of the car died Thursday morning when the 1995 Saturn swerved into the path of a Waste Connections of Tennessee Inc. truck on Highway 11, the trooper reported.
The garbage truck was driven by Carl R. McMahan, 47, of Madisonville.
Harvey, 4704 Kingston Hwy., was driving southbound near Dixie Lee Junction when the accident occurred, Garrett said.
"It doesn’t make sense to turn left where he did — there’s no road," said Garrett.
A witness driving a vehicle behind the garbage truck reportedly told Garrett it looked like Harvey made a sharp turn in front of the truck although Garrett said he isn’t certain how the accident occurred.
He noted Harvey could have lost control if the vehicle’s left front tire went flat, suddenly forcing his car across the road.
Also, Garrett mentioned the layout of the road in the area created a restricted view of oncoming traffic in both lanes; therefore, he said Harvey could have driven slightly into the shoulder and overcorrected, forcing his vehicle into the northbound lane.
McMahan was not injured in the crash.
Garrett noted a blood test was performed and filed with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, which is standard protocol for traffic fatalities.
Sean Quinlan, a manager at Mellow Mushroom, co-worker and friend of Harvey, said, "He was a good friend — a wonderful person. It’s a big loss, not just for us but for everybody that knew him. He will be missed."
Quinlan mentioned friends called him "Harv" and said several of the employees at the Farragut location had grown up with Harvey while attending middle or high school with him.
Funeral services were scheduled for Saturday at Click Funeral Home.

they make them sounds crazy. I mean shit so what they found shit oh well. 2 people are DEAD. no longer here. Remember their spirit...theirs lives...not what they had in the car....cause that doesn't matter. it really doesn't. theres children dead, families in pain, friends left with sorrow.
But we all did get together in a life rememberance/drum circle at cherokee park. That was nice. :) I loved cathing up with everyone.
I've been working...still just getting by...its really hard financially...
went to Bobs farm in kingston..that was relaxing.
The most productive thing I did was an intense yoga workout at laurel high. Some great folks there. Grounded. Universalized. Realizing the beauty and elegance.
