The Montana Highway Patrol says Tate was northbound when he entered a curve and lost control of his Cadillac. The vehicle crossed the center and southbound lanes before sliding off the edge of the road and rolling down an embankment. The car was found on its side in a pasture.
Tate was thrown from the vehicle.
