UPDATE/Truck Driver Involved in I-57 Wreck Ticketed for Improper Lane Usage

Truck Driver Involved in I-57 Wreck Ticketed for Improper Lane Usage
3/27/07

Quote:

State Police have ticketed the driver of a semi that jack-knifed across the southbound lanes of I-57 just south of the Salem exit blocking traffic for three hours Monday morning for improper lane usage. Police reports indicated Teddy Felgenhauer of Peru, Indiana drove off the left side of the highway, hit the guardrail, skidded sideways, with the flat bed trailer ending up on top of the bridge railing.
Police at first feared the flatbed trailer might fall off the bridge to the CSX Railroad tracks below. The impact of the collision also knocked a piece of concrete out of the bridge structure, resulting in the need for a State Department of Transportation Bridge inspector before the highway could be completely reopened.
