At least 15 people are injured and two are 'critically' hurt after what's known as a 'pedal pub' went too fast and rolled over in a Midtown Atlanta intersection.

The pedal pubs are open-air, foot powered trolley buses that allow people to enjoy drinks while riding through the city.

The crash took place at around 6.30pm at the intersection of 14th and West Peachtree Streets, according to CBS 46.

Authorities said that they believe the shuttle was attempting to turn when it toppled over.

Two people were critically injured, three sustained what were termed 'serious injuries' and 10 people suffered minor injuries, according to Atlanta Fire and Rescue.

Officials do not know how many people were on board the pedal pub at the time of the accidents.   

Firefighters needed to use an ambulance bus, usually reserved for 'mass-casualty events' to take 10 of the injured to local hospitals. 

'The Atlanta Fire Rescue Department has a mobile ambulance we call it MAV-1..we utilized that to transport 10 and Grady facilitated the transportation of the other 5 patients,' said Jason McLain, Battalion Chief. 

The intersection had to be shut down as officials tended to those that were injured before transporting them to four different Atlanta hospitals.  

No other vehicles were involved. The crash remains under investigation.
