The driver of the dump truck then lost control, causing the truck to overturn on its side and slide down the curve of the ramp until it stuck a guardrail, troopers said. The Hyundai went off the road and hit a tree in a wooded area of the median.

The driver of the dump truck was taken to a hospital with minor injuries and the driver of the Hyundai also suffered minor injuries, the incident report says.
