A truck driver fell asleep at the wheel on the Northway overnight, crashing into a guiderail and causing rush hour traffic delays.
State Police say 38-year-old Erasmo Aviles-Rios of Schenectady was driving a tractor-trailer carrying 10,000 pounds of cardboard on the I-87 southbound when, at around 4:52 a.m., he fell asleep while driving up the ramp at exit 6.

Falling asleep has got to be one of the worst fears when driving at night.
