One person was injured following a two-vehicle collision along State Highway 11 outside Greer yesterday (Thurs) afternoon.

Idaho State Police say a 62-year-old unidentified Grangeville man was driving a 2009 Peterbilt semi pulling a Low Boy trailer traveling southbound when the trailer entered the northbound lane. The trailer was struck by an oncoming 2020 Honda HR-V, causing the Honda to be pushed over an embankment off the northbound shoulder. The driver of the Honda, a 78-year-old unidentified woman from Weippe, was trapped and had to be extricated from the vehicle before being airlifted to a hospital.

The driver of the semi-truck was uninjured. Both drivers were wearing seatbelts.

The road was blocked for about two hours and the incident remains under investigation.
