The tractor-trailer made what police considered to be an unsafe lane change, forcing the Chevrolet to take evasive action to avoid a collision. The Chevrolet lost control in the process, hit a guard rail and spin into the tractor-trailer, overturning in the process. Aguirre suffered serious injuries and her passenger suffered minor injuries. The Hartselle man and his passenger were uninjured and he was issued a Changing Lanes When Unsafe charge.
