Carol Honaberger, 70, of Bridgton, died as a result of the crash, which took place just before 2:30 p.m. Wednesday on Route 302, also known as Roosevelt Trail, near Watkins Flats.
Late Wednesday night, her passenger, 81-year-old Dale Honaberger, died of injuries suffered in the crash, according to a release from Capt. Don Goulet of the Cumberland County Sheriff’s Office.
