A wrong way driver flipped his car and crashed into a storage container in San Luis Obispo early Friday morning.
Shortly after midnight, a caller reported a single vehicle crash on the 400 block of Higuera Street. Officers determined the 20-year-old Santa Maria driver exited Highway 101 at Marsh Street and made an illegal left turn onto Higuera Street.
He then lost control of his Chevy Camaro, hit a retaining wall, flipped and came to rest against a metal storage container.
Responders transported the driver to a local hospital for care of minor injuries. DUI is not suspected as a factor in this collision.
