Through investigation it was determined that vehicle #1, operated by Nascimento was traveling southbound on VT100 when he lost control of the vehicle around a corner just south of the River Road intersection, and ultimately collided with a northbound State of Vermont AOT plow truck. As a result of the crash, damage was sustained to each vehicle and no injury. Road conditions were slick with light snow falling. A warning was issued for failure to maintain the lane of travel and the vehicle was towed by Carrara’s towing. The AOT plow truck was able to continue in its duties.
