Initial investigation has indicated the driver of a Dodge pickup was stopped in the northbound lane of 264 Street waiting to turn left onto 48 Avenue. A Ford Taurus, also northbound on 264 Street did not react to the stopped pick up truck until the last minute and swerved into the south bound lane, into the path of an oncoming 5 ton truck.

As a result of the collision, the Taurus left the roadway and down an embankment. Unfortunately, the driver and lone occupant of the Taurus succumbed to her injuries at the scene.
