following the crash. He is currently listed in critical condition.

At approximately 10:20 a.m., a 2017 Toyota Rav4 was traveling eastbound on Brighton Dam Road just

embankment and sign. The investigation is ongoing.

Brighton Dam Road was closed between Haviland Mill Road and the Montgomery County line for two
and a half hours but has since reopened.
