Press Release 8/1/17

Today at 3:30 PM the Boundary County Sheriff’s Office responded to an accident located at the Mountain Meadows Road/Highway 95 slide reduced speed area.

A northbound vehicle from Libby Montana was traveling too fast and lost control striking the concrete retaining wall and then crossed over the center dividers striking a camp trailer southbound from Alberta before continuing down off the roadway into the timber below.

The family from Alberta was not injured, and the driver of the car from Montana suffered only minor injuries. Seat belts and airbags helped everyone from sustaining more severe injuries.

The Sheriff’s Office reminds everyone to please buckle up when driving and use caution through the reduced speed area of the Mountain Meadows/Highway 95 slide area.
