A 36-year-old Helena man died Saturday in a one-vehicle highway accident on Boulder Hill in which two toddlers sustained minor injuries, according to the Montana Highway Patrol.
Heading north on Interstate 15 from Boulder just after 3 p.m. on Jan. 31, a Ford F-250 moved into the left-hand lane to pass slower-moving traffic around mile marker 169, before drifting off the road to the left, as detailed in MHP’s report.
The truck re-entered the road, skidded across both lanes and crashed into the guardrail on the right side, causing the vehicle to roll and eject the driver. He had not been wearing a seat belt, according to MHP, and died at the scene.
