On October 16, 2021 at approximately 1520 hours, Lonnie E. Huntsman, 48 of Westwood was driving his 2004 Toyota Tacoma, westbound on SR-70, just west of Old Highway (west). James S. White, 58 of Mcarthur, CA was driving his 2002 Ford F250, eastbound on SR-70, just east of Old Highway (west). At this location, westbound traffic was stopped for roadwork. Huntsman was traveling westbound when he all of a sudden saw that a traffic was stopped around a curve for roadwork. Huntsman was not able to stop in time before colliding with the stopped vehicle in front of him, so Huntsman made an unsafe turn to the left, into the opposing lane. The front left of Huntsman’s Toyota collided into the front left of White’s Ford in the eastbound lane of SR-70. Both vehicles stopped and moved to the shoulder, out of the roadway. White was transported to Plumas District Hospital for his injuries.
