An unbelted passenger was injured in a minor accident on Highway 88 near Carriage Way on Tuesday evening. According to the California Highway Patrol, a young Stockton couple were having an argument in their car Tuesday evening around 4PM when the 18-year old male passenger grabbed the car’s steering wheel and turned it sharply to the right. The female driver pulled the steering wheel back, causing the car to spin counterclockwise and run off of Hwy 88 and down an embankment. The vehicle had only minor damage, and the driver suffered only minor injuries. The passenger was not wearing his seatbelt and struck the dash with his chest. He was transported to Sutter Amador with moderate injuries.  Bill Lavallie contributed to this story
