HEBER CITY — One person died Thursday night in a two-vehicle crash on U.S. 40 near Heber City.

A Ford F-150 was traveling west when it entered oncoming traffic to pass another vehicle. After passing the vehicle, the F-150 stayed in the oncoming travel lane and hit a Dodge Ram that was pulling a flatbed trailer head-on, according to Utah Highway Patrol Lt. Cameron Roden.

The 39-year-old occupant of the F-150 was killed in the crash and the driver and passenger of the Dodge Ram were transported from the crash by ambulance with injuries not considered to be life-threatening.

Roden said lanes were closed on U.S. 40 for about three and a half hours. The identity of the driver killed in the crash has not yet been released.
