At approximately 7:30am on November 11, 2019, Idaho State Police responded to a semi-truck crash south bound SH 3 at milepost 0.3, just north of the US12 junction. Daniel C. D. Brown Jr, 21 YOM from Potlatch, ID, was driving a 1992 Peterbilt tractor and failed to negotiate a right hand turn due to speed, which caused him to lose his load of logs, blocking both lanes of SH 3. The highway was blocked for approximately an hour and a half. It is unknown if Brown was wearing his seatbelt. Investigation is ongoing.
