Two men were pronounced dead at the scene of a horrific two-vehicle accident early Tuesday after an SUV crashed into a garbage truck, killing the driver of the SUV and an employee who was emptying refuse into the truck.

Sgt. Ron Curtis of the Caribou Police Department said Tuesday the accident on the slush-covered roadway happened just north of the VFW Hall on the Van Buren Road.

According to Curtis, Daniel Andretta, 30, of Caribou was driving a 2001 Dodge Durango on the roadway when he came upon the 2007 International garbage truck being driven by owner Jack Herbert.

About Dump Truck

A standard dump truck is a full truck chassis with a dump body mounted to the frame. The dump body is raised by a hydraulic ram mounted forward of the front bulkhead, between the truck cab (traction unit) and the dump body (semi-trailer). The tailgate can be configured to swing on hinges or it can be configured in the "High Lift Tailgate" format wherein pneumatic rams lift the gate open and up above the dump body.
