The victims jumped from the Yellowstone River Bridge during the crash to avoid being hit by one of the cars, the Montana Highway Patrol (MHP). tweeted. They are expected to recover.
Officials believe the cause of the crash was ice on the bridge, according to MHP.
The crash occurred on I-90 westward near the I-94 split in Lockwood, about six miles northeast of Billings. I-90 WB will be closed from that rift as troops investigate the crash, MHP tweeted.
A special weather statement was issued by the National Weather Service in Billings early Saturday afternoon stating that a heavy rainstorm was observed moving into the area at 15 km / h. The statement warned that the roads in question included I-94 and I-90 and that conditions could deteriorate rapidly.
NWS has been reporting light snow and fog in the Billings area since Saturday morning, with a temperature of around 20 degrees in the morning and a high of 32 degrees.
