It occurred near milepost 60 in Wasioja Township.<\/p>\n<p>The Minnesota State Patrol said a 2008 Ford F-150 was traveling south on Highway 56. The pickup then lost control on the wet roadway.<\/p>\n<p>The truck left the highway and entered the east ditch. It then rolled before coming to a stop.<\/p>\n<h2>Driver Taken To Rochester Hospital<\/h2>\n<p>Douglas Allen Adamson, 69, of Austin, was driving the Ford F-150.<\/p>\n<p>Adamson suffered injuries described as non-life-threatening. Emergency crews transported him to St. Mary&#8217;s in Rochester for treatment.<\/p>\n<p>The crash report said Adamson was wearing a seat belt. The pickup&#8217;s airbags did not deploy during the crash.<\/p>\n<p>Alcohol was not suspected as a factor, according to the State Patrol.<\/p>\n<h2>Wet Road Reported<\/h2>\n<p>The State Patrol listed the road surface as wet when the crash happened.<\/p>\n<p>Drivers should reduce speed during rain and allow more distance between vehicles. Wet roads can reduce traction and increase stopping distance.<\/p>\n<p>Motorists can check current road conditions through <a href=\"https:\/\/511mn.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Minnesota 511<\/a> before traveling.<\/p>\n<p>They can also review public crash information through the <a href=\"https:\/\/app.dps.mn.gov\/MSPMedia2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Minnesota State Patrol<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Emergency Crews Respond<\/h2>\n<p>Dodge Center Fire Department and Dodge Center Ambulance responded to the scene. The Dodge County Sheriff&#8217;s Office also assisted.<\/p>\n<p>Only one vehicle was involved in the crash. No other occupants were listed in the State Patrol report.<\/p>\n<p>The incident was classified as an injury crash. The State Patrol marked the available information as complete Monday afternoon.<\/p>\n<p>The crash was assigned incident number 26103883. Case information is available through the Rochester district at 507-923-2040.<\/p>\n<p>The crash remains another reminder that wet pavement can quickly affect vehicle control. Drivers are urged to use extra care during changing weather.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m Adrian Cole reporting for <a href=\"https:\/\/trfnews.i234.me\">TRF News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Copyright 2026 TRF News.
