SANDS TOWNSHIP -- In rain, shine or snow, the stretch of M-553 known as "glasses curve" in Sands Township has proven to be a treacherous spot.

Marquette County Sheriff's deputies say a 59-year-old Marquette woman lost control of her sedan as a result of a sneezing fit.

She swerved into the shoulder, hit some trees and then rolled into an embankment where her vehicle landed upside down.

The driver was transported to Marquette General Hospital with minor injuries.

No other vehicles were involved in the crash.
