A 19-year-old woman who was driving the wrong way on the Interstate 44 caused a head-on collision, which sent four people to the hospital with injuries, NewsOn6.com<\/em> reports. Oklahoma Highway Patrol officials say the woman was traveling westbound in the eastbound lanes of the freeway when she struck another car head-on. The driver and two passengers of the second car were taken to a Tulsa hospital. They are said to be in stable condition. A teen passenger, also from the car that was hit, was taken to a regional medical center in critical condition. Officials say alcohol was the cause of the crash. An investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n
