According to the Oregonian, last weekend a semi-truck and a Toyota Camry carrying two people, traveling northbound on I-5 near the Charbonneau Interchange, collided when the truck made an unsafe lane change.
The truck pushed the car across three lanes of northbound traffic where it then careened into the concrete median and flipped over. The driver of the car, David William Brown, 32, of Junction City, Oregon was treated at OHSU for minor injuries while the passenger, David Campbell, 65 also of Junction City was taken to OHSU by LifeFlight in critical condition.
The driver of the semi-truck, Martin Landeros, 41, of Salinas, California, was not injured and was cited for making an unsafe lane change.
