MSP says there were three people inside the vehicle. A female passenger in her 20s was ejected from the car, and police say she was alert and conscious with a laceration to her head.

The 22-year-old driver sustained injuries to her head, neck, back and hip. 

In addition, a 15-year-old boy was a passenger in the car and was transported to a local hospital to be treated for unknown injuries.

"We continue to see poor driving behaviors leading to crashes on Michigan roads," stated MSP Lt. Mike Shaw. "Drivers must slow down, leave space between them and the car in front of them and ensure everyone in the vehicle is seat belted."  

MSP continues to investigate.
