A 16-year-old driver was t-boned after making an improper right turn from the inside lane of Waukegan Road.

A Saturday night collision on Waukegan Road caused a Lexus to flip on its side, though no one in the collision sustained serious injuries.

On June 15 at 10:20 p.m., a 16-year-old driver from Wilmette traveling northbound on Waukegan Road approaching Winnetka Road was t-boned by a 50-year-old man, according to Northfield police.
