Speeding is a sure-fire way to put yourself at risk of getting into an accident. That’s precisely what happened recently when one vehicle was speeding on I-55 outside St. Louis.

According to the article on the St. Louis Post-Dispatch website, at approximately 12:30 in the morning, a 2003 Ford Mustang was speeding along the highway when it hit a GMC pickup truck. The impact caused the truck to overturn, and the driver was ejected from the vehicle. A passenger in the Mustang was injured during the wreck, but the driver did not suffer any serious injuries.
