Louisville Woman Dies In Moped Accident

September 5, 2023 by Mable Cundiff


Louisville Metro police said a woman was killed while riding a moped on Cambridge Drive Sunday night.

Around 11 p.m., LMPD responded to a report of a crash involving a moped in the 100 block of Cambridge Drive.

A witness told police a red pickup truck was headed east on Cambridge Drive when it crashed head-on with a moped that was traveling west.

The moped left the road and went into a grassy area, according to police.

The driver of the pickup truck failed to stop and continued west on Cambridge Drive.

Police said the woman driving the moped died before she could be taken to the hospital. She was identified as 70-year-old Deborah Richardson.

Richardson’s family said she lived a few houses down from where the crash happened. They said she was retired and was well known for helping others.
