Two people died on late Monday when the subcompact collided with the rear of a NDOT (Nevada Department of Transpiration) snowplow on Interstate 80 east of Winnemucca.
Walter Lee Williams of Idaho Falls, Idaho was steering the Chevrolet Spark that hit the rear of a NDOT snowplow.
Walter Lee Williams, 79, of Idaho Falls, Idaho, was driving the car and his sister, Sherrill Lynn Mcleod, 74, of Pebble Beach, Calif., was a passenger. Both succumbed to their injuries at the scene.
The NHP said that the incident took place at around 11 p.m. about 3 miles east of Winnemucca in the westbound lanes.
The NHP said the NDOT snowplow was removing snow from the inside shoulder when the 2020 Chevrolet Spark crashed into it from behind. Debris spread across both lanes, the NHP said.
An investigation is ongoing.
