It happened as one driver tried to overtake the other while exiting a highway ramp.

ST. LOUIS COUNTY, MO – Two St. Louis residents were hospitalized following a two-vehicle crash Sunday afternoon on Interstate 170 near Hazelwood, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol.

The accident happened on the ramp connecting northbound I-170 to eastbound I-270 and was first reported at about 1:09 p.m.

Preliminary details indicate a 22-year-old St. Louis man was driving a 2005 Dodge Dakota eastbound on lane 1 of I-270 after having exited northbound I-170. At one point, the St. Louis man tried to overtake a 2015 Nissan Quest on the right side. As the Dakota changed from lanes 2 to 1, the back-right quarter panel of the vehicle hit the front-right quarter panel of the Nissan Quest.

The initial impact caused the Dodge Dakota to slide across the entire eastbound highway and off the left side of the roadway. Moments later, the vehicle’s right side hit the concrete median barrier.

The driver of the Dodge Dakota and his passenger, a 21-year-old woman from St. Louis, were both transported to Mercy Hospital St. Louis for moderate injuries.

No charges or citations have been reported at this time.
