The driver was wearing a seatbelt. Both the driver and passenger, a 78-year-old male, of El Cerrito, California, were transported by ground ambulance to a local hospital. One lane was blocked for approximately 4 hours while crews recovered the vehicle. One lane is still blocked while the wrecker continues to remove the camper trailer.

The crash is under investigation by the Idaho State Police.
