The crash took place when the driver of the car attempted to pass in a no-passing zone on SR 46 and struck an oncoming truck head-on.

The crash then caused the truck to roll over and engulf.

All five people in that truck were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries.

The two adults in the car suffered minor injuries.
