Driver Rescued After Rolling Over Into Canal Near Dixon

SOLANO COUNTY (CBS13) — A driver escaped with just minor injuries after crashing off a rural Solano County road and rolling into a canal early Monday morning, authorities say.

California Highway Patrol's Solano division says, just before 6 a.m., a driver lost control while on Allendale Road between Dixon and Vacaville and crashed into an irrigation canal.

Exactly what led up to the driver losing control is unclear, but the vehicle came to a rest upside down in the canal - which was full of water.
