A driver is dead and his passenger is injured after a crash Sunday evening in the town of Chester.

State Police say 27-year-old Steven Dauksza was entering State Route 17 shortly before 5:30. They say he tried to get beyond a car that was in the passing lane by speeding up in the driving lane.

When he tried to change lanes, his pick-up hit another car and went off the road. Police say it fell into an embankment and rolled, throwing out Dauksza and 27-year-old Michelle Rodriguez.

Dauksza died on scene while Rodriguez is listed as stable, yet critical, at Orange Regional Medical Center.
