For unknown reasons, the Jeep began to change lanes into the second lane and struck the Ford. Both units then ran off the roadway and ended up in the right ditch, with with the Jeep overturning. No injuries were reported on scene.

Crouch was issued a citation for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, the ISP said.
