RCMP said investigators have determined that an SUV with two occupants, being driven by the woman, was travelling westbound when it veered into the eastbound lane and collided head-on with a semi, being driven by a 63-year-old man from Plumas.
The woman was pronounced dead on scene and her 18-year-old male passenger was taken to hospital with minor physical injuries. The semi driver was not physically injured.
A section of Highway 16, from Highway 34 to Highway 50, was closed until just before 5 p.m. due to the collision.
Neepawa RCMP, along with a Forensic Collision Reconstructionist, continue to investigate.
