We own the property east of the accident. I was working outside and heard the collision about 1:15 pm and called 911. This is a blind corner and isn’t obvious for the southbound traffic. When viewed southbound the highway dips down and away and to the right. The curve is somewhat hidden to the driver. From the Statesman Journal article: “Despite its curves, Highway 223 is not what Brown would consider a dangerous road.” I have logged 18 accidents on this corner since we bought our property in 1999. There may be more that I am not aware of. We are greatly concerned about this sad event. Our condolences to the families.
