The incident happened around midnight Thursday at Dickerson Pike and Interstate 65.
Officials with Metro Nashville Police said the teen tried to turn onto I-65 but instead drove up onto a retaining wall, causing the car to overturn.
Two teens inside the vehicle were hurt and taken to an area hospital. Both were expected to recover.
The ages of the teens ranged from 14 to 16.
The teen driver was charged with not having a driver’s license and breaking curfew.
