A woman suffered life-threatening injuries after an intoxicated teenage driver drove onto a sidewalk in San Francisco’s Crocker-Amazon district and crashed into a Muni bus shelter, hitting her and another woman, officials said.

The crash occurred about 3:30 a.m. Tuesday on the 5700 block of Mission Street, near the San Francisco Nursing Center, police said.

The driver, a 19-year-old man, veered from a traffic lane onto the sidewalk and into the Muni bus shelter, where two people were standing — including the woman who was critically injured, police said. A 55-year-old woman was also hurt, but her injuries were described as non-life-threatening, police said.

Both injured women were transported to a hospital.

The driver, who was not identified, was arrested and booked into San Francisco County Jail. He was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, driving without a license and making an unsafe lane change.
