The driver left the roadway on the east side of the road and traveled along the shoulder of the road for about 210 feet before hitting the water in the ditch. The roads had been icy. Once the vehicle hit the water, the truck overturned and was facing back to the north with the passenger side of the truck closest to the road. Driver and passengers were able to exit the vehicle with the help of a vehicle driving past and all occupants were transported to Taylorville Memorial Hospital.
