Iowa State Patrol Reports for injuries in Lee County, Iowa. This second car-truck accident on January 8, 2011 is described as a head-on crash on U.S. 61 with Spencer O'Ryan driving a Wrangler and Amanda Brown, from Missouri driving Ford Ranger pickup truck. The ISP report has the Wrangler coming across the center line.

The ISP report of January 7, 2011 shows a car accident at 7:25 a.m. on 300 Street and J072. That report shows a Wrangler Sport sliding across the center line and into the path of a GMC Dump Truck, ouch this is going to hurt. The dump truck is driven by Alvin Krebill from Donnellson and the Wrangler by Truda Rudd from Montrose. It appears from the report that the Wrangler driver was cited for a failure to maintain control, which if you read the report would confirm the description of who came over the center line.
