Wrongway driver in I-80 head-on; one in critical, one fair condition

The driver of the van, who was not wearing a seat belt, was transported to the hospital in critical but stable condition; the Versa's driver was transported in fair condition, Lucas said. A alleged drunk, wrongway driver collided head-on with a van on Interstate 80 early Sunday morning, critically injuring the other man. Mary Kay Lucas said the first, also male driver was reported driving his Nissan Versa northbound into southbound traffic on Interstate 215 near 5300 South about 3 a.m. As troopers closed in, he switched onto I-80, again traveling against traffic, this time westbound in the eastbound lanes. Near 300 East, the Versa struck the Dodge van.
