Two truck drivers charged in I-15 crash that killed Santaquin woman

PAYSON -- Two semi tractor trailer rig drivers were arrested in connection with the fatal crash of a Santaquin woman's car on Interstate 15.
The Daily Herald newspaper reports today that Melissa Sandoval, 28, died Thursday morning after her car was struck and forced into the median by a northbound semi. Out-of-control, Sandoval then crashed into the southbound trailer of a semi tanker rig on I-15 near Payson.

1st driver hit her twice, to force her to the median, where she flipped, into the second trailer of a wiggle wagon, knocking it loose - according to earlier stories in the local media.

1st driver jailed, second driver in for it because of the weed - and the 4 wheeler dead - such a loss - - - likely due to temper.

It's a bad deal for all involved. Especially the lady that died and her family.

But, can you say..."Make that company look good, by telling a flat out lie." Thereby reducing the chance they will be sued too.

See if you can spot the lie.

Roden said that driver, 59-year-old John Caouette of Salt Lake City, would not have faced any charges, but his company made him take a chemical or urine test, and that tested positive for marijuana.
Another question...was he high? I know some people won't see the relevance to that question. But it is valid.

When did his last random occur? How many has his company performed over the year(s).
