Death
Description:
The case involved a 36-year-old woman who was killed in a head-on collision, which occurred during blinding "white-out" conditions in southwestern Minnesota. She collided with the defendant tractor/trailer in a spot where the drifting snow had reduced the travel portion of the roadway to a single lane. The defendant truck driver was violating Federal Motor Carrier Regulation 392.14 and should not have been on the roadway during a "No Travel Advisory."
