Car rolled and came to rest on its wheels
One person is hurt in a single vehicle crash along Interstate 70 in Lincoln County Friday evening.
According to the Kansas Highway Patrol, 16-year-old Joseph Rennaker from Kinsley was driving a car west on I-70. For an unknown reason he veered off the road, and into the median. Rennaker than overcorrected, traveled back across the westbound lanes and into the north ditch. The car overturned and came to rest on its wheels.
Rennaker was not hurt, but a passenger was. 37-year-old Traci Dauber of Kinsley was transported to Salina Regional Health Center.
Troopers say that Rennaker and Daubert were both buckled up.
The crash happened at 7:50 Friday night, about 17 miles west of Salina on I-70 in Lincoln County.

I hope the woman will be ok, I wonder though if they checked the 16yr old cell phone, was he texting, talking, downloading music etc... "For an unknown reason he veered off the road" Hmmmmm I suppose he could have dosed off too. Noone "veers" off a road for no reason!!

Looks like Joseph wont be driving for awhile. If you mess up while driving on a restricted you get your license taken away until your 21.. Got himself in a sticky situation..
