A driver was seriously injured following a high-speed chase on Interstate 20 in Weatherford, Texas, exceeding 100 mph and crashing into a culvert.
According to CBS News, the driver struck another vehicle before fleeing and ultimately losing control of their GMC Terrain.
The Texas Department of Public Safety reported that both vehicles involved sustained damage, but fortunately, no one in the other vehicle was injured. The driver, alone in the GMC, was taken to a hospital with serious injuries.
