GRANDVIEW PLAZA- A Kansas woman was injured in an accident just before 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday in Geary County.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 2005 Hyundai Elantra driven by Corliss J. Barner, 59, Grandview Plaza, was east bound on Interstate 70 three miles west of Kansas 18 in the right hand lane.

An unknown black Ford pick up attempted to merge into the Hyundai’s lane from the left lane.

Barner slammed on her brakes, swerved to the right to avoid being hit by the pick up and lost control of the car.

The Hyundai exited the road to the right, bounced off the bridge, came back into the east bound lane, exited the road to the left, went into a flat spin and came to rest on top of a guardrail.

Barner was transported to Geary County Hospital.
She was properly restrained at the time of the accident according to the KHP.
