A semi driven by Saleem Gillani, 49 of South Ozone Park, NY, and a car driven by Tammy Leonard, 50 of Effingham were both traveling west on Interstate 70 near milepost 98 at 6:01 Monday night. The car was in the right lane and the semi was in the left lane. Gillani attempted to change lanes and merged into the right lane, striking the driver side of Leonard's car. 

Leonard was transported by ambulance to HSHS St. Anthony's Memorial Hospital with minor injuries. 

Gillani was uninjured but was cited for Improper Lane Usage.
