A Granbury woman died when a semi truck hauling a trailer hit another vehicle, then veered into oncoming traffic and hit her head-on, the Texas Department of Public Safety said.
Bayli Carney, 20, was driving a 2012 Kia Soul southbound on Texas 171, about seven miles north of Cresson, at about 6:10 p.m. Sunday.
