A 75-year-old woman from Villa Ridge, Missouri, was seriously injured Friday in a crash on Highway 54 at Quarry Road, an area southwest of Jefferson City, according to a crash report from the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
The report says the driver of a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado – driven by the woman – was heading westbound on Highway 54 when she tried to make a left turn. A 2005 Ford 500 – driven by a 23-year-old Stover man – rear-ended the Chevrolet, according to the report.
The crash then resulted in the Chevrolet going off the road and into the eastbound lanes, where it was hit by a 2012 Honda Pilot that was driven by a 47-year-old Jefferson City man, the report says.
The second hit caused the Chevrolet to overturn.
The woman was brought to University Hospital by ambulance. The Jefferson City man had minor injuries and was brought to St. Mary’s Hospital in a private vehicle. The Stover man had moderate injuries and was brought to Capital Regional Medical Center by ambulance, the report says.
The Jefferson City man wore a seatbelt, the Stover man did not and it is not known if the woman wore a seatbelt, the report says. All three vehicles were totaled.
MSHP reports do not name those involved in crashes.
