Police are investigating a crash where the driver hit a sign, light pole, and a guardrail before flipping the car. 

According to police, Nicholas Alan Taylor, 30, was driving his Dodge pickup truck driving westbound on Route 32 just before 2:00 Friday morning. 

Taylor was the only one in the car. Police say he drove off the road and hit a sign, light pole, and guardrail before his car flipped over. 

He was taken to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center where he is in a stable condition. 

During a preliminary investigation, police believe that alcohol and speed were contributing factors to the crash. 

Charges have not been filed at this time. 

Route 32 westbound between Dorsey Run Road and Route 1 was closed for around two and a half hours.
