Investigators believe Harris, who was driving the moped, lost control, crossed the median of the road and hit a Jeep Wrangler headed the other way. While she was pronounced dead at the scene, her passenger, a 40-year-old woman from Boston, was injured, but is in stable condition after being flown to a Boston hospital, police said.
Both women on the moped had helmets on, investigators found.
