INCIDENT NARRATIVE: Clawson was traveling southbound on US95 near milepost 338.4 when he attempted to slow down for slowing traffic in front of him as a result from a separate crash. Clawson began to slide and maneuvered his vehicle toward the right shoulder. Klander was also traveling southbound behind Clawson. Klander attempted to slow down when she saw Clawson slowing, but was unable to stop. Klander struck the rear of Clawson's vehicle causing Clawson to lose control and slide off the southbound shoulder. Klander also lost control of her vehicle and slid into the northbound lane where her vehicle came to rest near the northbound fog line. The highway was blocked for approximately two hours.
