A news release from Idaho State Police indicates 64-year-old Rosemerri Rollins of Pocatello was driving westbound on U.S. 26 in a 2004 Ford Explorer. Forty-year-old Jackilyn Keiter of Clinton, Utah was stopped in the westbound lane in a 2015 GMC Yukon. She had two teenage passengers in the car with her.
