The Kansas Highway Patrol says it happened on Clark Road, just south of 62nd Street, shortly after 9:30.

According to the KHP report, 56-year-old Scott Younkin, of Lawrence, was southbound when an unknown vehicle that was traveling northbound failed to move over. Younkin moved over to the right and dropped into the west ditch, where his rig overturned onto its side.

He was transported to a Topeka hospital with suspected minor injuries.

The Patrol says Younkin was wearing a seat belt when the crash occurred
