A crash on Interstate 275 in St. Petersburg closed the exit ramp to I-175 for nearly two hours this morning.
The wreck happened at 7:47 a.m. on northbound I-275, blocking the lanes to southbound I-175 and Ninth Street, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
The ramp was closed until about 9:30 a.m.
A blue Honda Pilot crashed, flipping several times before it came to rest on its roof, Deputy Fire Marshal Lt. Joel Granata said.
The driver, Olga Carr, 34, was shaken up, but suffered only minor injuries, Granata said.
A nurse was on her way to work at Bayfront Medical Center when she saw the crash and stopped to help. Kristie Zapps, 28, of Tampa, gave Carr first aid until emergency workers arrived.
