The crash happened half a mile west of the Merchant Street exit shortly after 5:10 pm. Troopers say Megan Olson was southbound when she lost control of her SUV. The vehicle then rolled to the right shoulder before ending on its top.
Olson went to Newman Regional Health by private vehicle. Troopers say she was wearing her seatbelt when the wreck happened.
