Fairlee crash at US Route 5 and Lake Morey Road

Police say Kate Magill, 40, of Canaan, New Hampshire, was driving a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek and tried to turn north onto US Route 5 around 12:45 p.m. when she failed to notice a second vehicle.

That vehicle, a 2021 Subaru Crosstrek driven by Kassie Covey, 39, of Thetford, was heading south on US Route 5, according to police. The two collided, leaving moderate damage to both vehicles. No injuries were reported, and neither driver needed hospitalization.

Troopers determined Magill was at fault for failing to safely enter the roadway and issued her a citation, police say. The charges are allegations, and she is presumed innocent until proven guilty.
