The pickup went off the left side of the roadway and struck the cable barrier, ejecting the driver. The semi-truck traveled off the right side of the road.
The pickup’s driver, a 48-year-old woman, was pronounced dead at the scene. Her next of kin has been notified.
The semi-truck suffered moderate damage, but the driver did not report any injuries.
