Haley advised he was traveling south on Scotch Hollow Rd when he lost traction, which caused him to exit the roadway and strike a power pole. Haley’s vehicle sustained heavy front-end damage, and the crash also damaged the power pole. This section of Scotch Hollow Road was closed temporarily while Green Mountain Power repaired the pole and restored power. Vermont State Police were assisted on the scene by the Newbury Fire Department, JTB Towing, Newbury Highway Dept., and Green Mountain Power.
