(MoneyNewsWire.Net, March 04, 2015 ) Salt Lake City, UT -- A crash that happened near Lambs County in Utah yesterday is being currently investigated. From the wreck, one UDOT worker was injured, and one of the drivers of a vehicle involved was left in critical condition.
There had been a rollover accident earlier that day, and the UDOT worker was putting orange cones away after that wreck was cleaned up. While doing so, he noticed an oncoming white SUV. The worker tried to get out of the way quickly, and made it back to his truck, but was not able to move the truck fast enough. His truck was hit by the SUV, but was fortunate to only have suffered minor injuries.
There are a couple of factors that played into this accident, one being the weather. Roads were slick at that time due to a mix of rain and snow that was coming down at the time. However, the SUV was coming at what seemed to be a high rate of speed, and officials are looking into this being a possible cause for the crash. In addition, they are finding out if the driver of the SUV may have been distracted and did not see the UDOT worker. There are witnesses that state that the SUV did not slow down or brake right before the collision.
