Spanish fork, Utah. Utah Highway Patrol troopers responded to a crash involving a truck that was carrying 78 head of cattle.
A semi-trailer was traveling southbound on I-15 near mile marker 257 when it began to move east toward Highway 6 and rolled. The crash occurred at about 3:30 p.m.
UHP officials stated that the vehicle “appears to have been traveling faster than 30 mph posted cautionary speed limit.”
Sgt. David Rumfield of the Utah Highway Patrol was in the area on an unrelated call and witnessed the incident.
He said the truck was: “going, by my estimate about 40, 45 miles per hour, as it rounds the corner.
At that point in time I was thinking that we’re going to have a problem.
As he rounds the corner he rolled over onto its side right in front of me.”
