INCIDENT NARRATIVE:

Donald Pisarcik of Bozeman Montana was driving his 2003 Chevrolet Silverado pickup towing a 2012 Montana 34 foot travel trailer and a 2008 drift boat eastbound on US12 near milepost 19.8 when he was unsafely passed by an unidentified brown extended cab Chevrolet pickup with an approximate model year of 1992-1994 and Nez Perce County plates. The vehicle was driven by a male driver with a white beard. The passing maneuver was cut short due to oncoming traffic and the unknown driver forced Pisarcik?s vehicle combination off the roadway. The travel trailer became disconnected from the pickup and rolled onto its side, and the boat became jackknifed behind the travel trailer. There were no injuries. Pisarcik was wearing his seatbelt. The eastbound lane was blocked for approximately 5.5 hours, and both lanes were blocked for approximately 30 minutes. ITD and Forrest Towing assisted with traffic control. If anybody has information leading to the identity of the unknown driver and the brown Chevrolet pickup, please call the District 2 office at 208-799-5150.
