MHP Provides More Details on Friday’s Fatal Crash near Florence
Montana Highway Patrol Sergeant Scott Bennett provided details of how the accident occurred.
“It was late Friday at 5:20 p.m. and this took place on Highway 93, south of the Missoula Ravalli County line north of Florence,” said Sergeant Bennett. “The woman that was killed was driving a Toyota Four Runner and she was traveling northbound like she d be going towards Lolo, but she slowed down to make a left turn into her driveway. The vehicle behind her was a GMC Yukon with a 19 year old male driving and he ran into the back of her vehicle, and then both of those vehicles then crossed into the oncoming southbound traffic lane where two southbound vehicles crashed into them, so we ended up with a four vehicle crash.”
