Driver hospitalized after overturning into ditch

Officials say they were “possibly unfamiliar” with the winding road.

A driver was sent to the hospital after overturning into a ditch in Virginia on Wednesday. 

The accident happened on September 15th in Callaway, Virginia. 

According to WFXR News, the semi truck was traveling along Adney Gap Road near Callaway Road when the rig took a curve too quickly, causing it to overturn. The rig then rolled into a roadside ditch, where it landed partially upside down.
