The vehicle spun around and came to rest facing Northwest in a pasture.
She was pronounced dead by Judge Billy Bledsoe at the scene.
DPS said the crash remains under investigation.
The crash happened 2.2 miles east of Novice at 8:30 a.m. Monday morning. The roadway was dry and the skies cloudy, DPS reported.
