The crash happened near Wells on February 10, just before 6:20 p.m.
A preliminary investigation determined that a gray Ram truck was heading westbound on I-80 in the right lane, failed to maintain its lane, and ran off the right side of the road.
The Ram then ran off the left side of the road before abruptly coming back onto the roadway and overturning.
The crash is being investigated by the Nevada Highway Patrol, Major Incident Reconstruction Team.
