The Missouri State Highway Patrol investigated three injury accidents Friday afternoon that were caused in part by snowy driving conditions.
Two people were seriously hurt in a crash in Caldwell County at 4pm Friday.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol says the driver was travelling at a high rate of speed and lost control on the snow-covered roadway along US-36 east of Hamilton, Mo.
Edward Keathley, 56, of Hamilton, and his wife Margaret Keathley, were transported to Cameron Regional Medical Center with serious injuries.
A Smithville woman suffered moderate injuries when she crashed along Route J in Clinton County.
Investigators say Jody Layne, 63, lost control of her vehicle about three miles north of Paradise, Mo at 4:30pm. The vehicle left the roadway and went down into a deep ravine.
Layne was transported to North Kansas City Hospital.
A 70-year-old Ridgeway, Missouri woman escaped with minor injuries after a rollover crash in Harrison County at 4:50pm Friday. State troopers say Madlyn Miles’ Chevy Blazer left Route Y west of Mount Morian and hit a ditch. The vehicle rolled one time and came to rest on its wheels.
Miles was taken to Harrison County Community hospital in Bethany with minor injuries.
