Shirlene M. Kutz, of Mount Holly Springs, was driving a 2012 Toyota Corolla out of a private driveway at 1561 Holly Pike in South Middleton Township around 9:43 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 11, according to Pennsylvania State Police at Carlisle.<\/p>\n
Kutz attempted to turn left onto Holly Pike but entered the roadway without enough clearance, investigators said.<\/p>\n
As her Toyota crossed into the northbound lane, it was struck on the driver\u2019s side front corner by a northbound 2015 Volvo VNL commercial vehicle, according to the crash report.<\/p>\n
The truck continued a short distance before coming to a controlled stop along the left shoulder, police said. Kutz\u2019s Toyota came to an uncontrolled stop along the right shoulder.<\/p>\n
Emergency crews extricated Kutz from the wreckage, and Cumberland Goodwill Fire Rescue EMS took her to UPMC Carlisle, where she later died from her injuries, according to police.<\/p>\n
The commercial vehicle driver suffered a suspected minor injury but was not taken to a hospital, the report states.<\/p>\n
Both drivers were wearing lap and shoulder belts, investigators noted.<\/p>\n
Holly Pike remained closed for approximately three hours while crews cleared the crash and police investigated.<\/p>\n
