A Cedar Rapids woman was injured in a one-vehicle accident on the city’s southwest side.

According to the Iowa State Patrol, 50-year-old Stephanie Meek was driving her 2007 Kia Spectra at a high rate of speed westbound on 16th Avenue just after 1:15 Saturday afternoon when she failed to stop at a stop sign. The car continued into a field and hit a pile of rocks, causing it to go airborne, slide sideways into a ditch and roll several times before landing on its top.

Meek was transported to St. Luke’s hospital with unspecified injuries. The accident remains under investigation.
