Car Crash in Marian SR32 kills Daniel Howells of Peoa

Video Courtesy of KSL.com





"A three-car crash in Summit County killed a man Monday morning. It happened just north of Kamas in the rural community of Marion.

Investigators say the crash began with a sideswipe as a pickup truck tried to pass a Jeep. That sent the Jeep into an oncoming car.

The driver of that car, 41-year-old Daniel Howells of Peoa, died in the collision.

His daughter was in the car with him but was not seriously injured."

TITLE: I was in the maroon car.

"First of all the driver of the dodge was no where near his teens and was actually around 65 years old! Mr Howells was in no way at fault for this accident!(wrong place wrong time). The driver in the Dodge (Mr Hockins) was to blame. It was snowing the morning of the accident and the roads were slushy. We were doing about 45 when mr Hockins passed, he never fully got back into his own lane although he had plenty of time, he rode over the yellow dotted line causing him to clipped the side of the postal truck which than spun out of control and hit me and my friend,causing us to roll over side ways once on the road then flipping end over end twice off into the ditch, than Mr Hokins was fully in the other lane causing the collison with Mr Howells. Its very sad some one had to die because of this. But we are gratefull no one else was seriously injured. The daughter was pretty banged up and went to the hospital but will be ok. We are very sorry for the family of the Howells!! We all need to pay more attention to what we are doing on the roads because these things can happen anywhere anytime. Are thoughts and prayers go out to the Howells."

That looks like the Kamas Valley US Postal Service Mail Delivery Jeep that was involved. How is the sweet lady that delivers our mail?
