A 17-year-old Layton girl died in a traffic crash Tuesday night in Kaysville.
She was driving a Honda passenger car north on U.S. Highway 89 near 400 North at about 6 p.m. when she veered left into oncoming traffic, said Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Kim Farnsworth.
The car hit an SUV that was stopped in the left-turn lane and continued into traffic, Farnsworth said. It collided with a southbound pickup truck on the passenger side and spun into another pickup truck on the driver's side.
The teen died at the scene. Police are not identifying her pending family notification.
Two adults in the other vehicles suffered minor injuries and were taken to area hospitals. The Honda had no passengers, Farnsworth said.
