PARK CITY, Utah — Summit County Sheriff Department deputies were dispatched on a traffic accident where a FedEx truck was coming down Olympic Pkwy, lost control, and flipped the truck onto its side on Monday.

There was no injury to the driver and after the investigation, he was cited for failure to operate in one lane and was released.

The road was designed for optimal auto and pedestrian traffic to allow for tens of thousands of spectators to walk up during the Salt Lake 2002 Olympics. The fields below, which are currently embroiled in the controversial Dakota Pacific development, were the location of full parking lots during the Games. Once they reached the top, the walkers were gifted a highly-coveted Olympic pin for their accomplishment.
