A 31-year-old Durango woman injured Tuesday in a head-on collision on U.S. Highway 160 between Durango and Bayfield was listed in fair condition Wednesday, a spokeswoman at St. Anthony\u2019s Hospital said.<\/p>\n

Around 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, authorities responded to a head-on crash near mile marker 96, west of the Narrow Gauge Mobile Home Park.<\/p>\n

Colorado State Patrol Trooper Bradley Spargur said Durango resident Samantha Haeussner was headed west in a Toyota Corolla when sudden rain on the road caused her car to hydroplane and cross the centerline.<\/p>\n

Haeussner struck a Ford pickup headed east, which went off the road and hit a culvert. Haeussner\u2019s Toyota rotated counter-clockwise and went off the right shoulder of the road.<\/p>\n

The driver of the Ford pickup was not injured. Haeussner\u2019s other occupant in the vehicle, her juvenile son, also was not injured.<\/p>\n

Haeussner was taken to Mercy Regional Medical Center and then flown by helicopter to St. Anthony\u2019s Hospital in Lakewood.<\/p>\n

Spargur said Haeussner was cited with careless driving because she was not driving in a manner safe for road conditions. Excessive speed and alcohol and drugs are not suspected factors in the crash.<\/p>\n

Everyone involved in the crash was wearing seat belts, Spargur said.<\/p>\n
