Truck drives into woods

Quote:
The Wisconsin State Patrol is investigating a one vehicle crash that left the driver dead. The accident happened around 12:30 Thursday morning.

The State Patrol says a semi driven by 33-year-old Jason Glinski of St. Paul, Minnesota, was traveling east on I-90/94 near Lyndon Station in Juneau County when it went off the road. The truck went into the median and struck several trees. It ended up about 50 feet off the roadway. Glinski was pronounced dead at the scene.

I drove by this one about an hour after it happened. This was at a curve in the road. Looks like the truck went straight, no attempt to turn. Odds are pretty good the driver fell asleep. Not much left of the tractor after pushing through some good sized trees. I didn't get a good enough look but a couple drivers said on the CB that it looked like the load didn't stop as quick as the truck did and the driver was crushed.

That's the accident I was looking for. I passed it and it just looked like someone drove right into the woods. So much trash left behind, I would've thought it was a garbage truck. There was another accident at the 81 (I-94) with a RV of some sort and a minivan that shut down the interstate for a while.
