Colorado woman was victim in this morning’s fatal crash; Driver fatigue a possible cause
(Moneta, Wyo.) – The Wyoming Highway Patrol is investigating driver fatigue as the possible cause of this morning’s fatal crash east of Shoshoni. WHP Lt. Tom Adams said Cheryl Rapue, 29, of Wiggins, Colo., was the driver of the westbound United States Postal Service contracted mail truck.
Rapue’s truck reportedly went off the right side of Highway 20/26 for unknown reasons at about 4 a.m.. Adams said the investigation showed she over-corrected to the left, causing the truck to go off the road and rolling one and one-quarter times. She was ejected from the vehicle; seatbelt usage is unknown at this time.
While driver fatigue is a possible cause of the crash, Adams said no one will never know exactly what happened. Rapue was the only occupant.

I sick of these speculations of driver fatigue. Did anyone get off their but and look for animal tracks. The contract drivers are professional driver no different than the PVS Postal Service drivers.Try respect instead of speculating on what was the cause of this crash. There is only one can answer and she in not talking about it. Rest in peace to our highway hero’s
