SACRAMENTO, CA (August 16, 2019) – Two drivers sustained injuries in a collision on Highway 99 on August 15.
 
The collision between a big rig and SUV slowed the southbound traffic on Highway 99 near Elk Grove Boulevard. The incident occurred at about 3:00 a.m.
 
According to CHP, an 18-year-old woman driving south, north of Dillard Road, turned unsafely into another lane. She then struck the left side of a big rig.
 
The 54-year-old big rig driver then lost control and struck the guardrail on the freeway’s left side.
 
The crash shut down the southbound lanes of Highway 99 until about 5:15 a.m. to recover the big rig and because of a minor fuel leak.
 
Medical responders transported the two drivers to a nearby hospital.
