Teen Driver Involved In Rollover East Of Stanton

A second rollover in as many days involved another teen driver.

According to the Stanton County Sheriff's Office, the Friday morning arrival of wintery weather led to a rollover accident  after 6 a.m. on U.S. Hwy 275 about 10 miles east of Norfolk when a eastbound pickup driven by a rural Norfolk teen on his way to school left the roadway and rolled.

​The teen driver was wearing his seatbelts properly and this prevented serious injuries. The pickup he was driving is considered a total loss. The Sheriff’s office also assisted in several other calls of vehicles in the ditch or having slid off the roadway due to the very icy road conditions.
