Truck crash on Demers Ave in Grand Forks
North Dakota Highway Patrol say 60 year-old Carla Pierce from Melrose, Minnesota, was driving a Peterbilt truck tractor pulling dry van trailer north on Interstate 29.
As the vehicle came over the top of the overpass over Demers Avenue, it left the roadway and entered the median, where it struck the highway guardrail on the west side of the median and jackknifed. The vehicle slid back toward the northbound lanes and came to rest with the rear of the tractor and front of the trailer partially in the northbound traffic lanes.
