    When officers arrived, the truck was overturned and partially in the road. The driver escaped injuries and was able to exit the vehicle.

    Both northbound lanes of the interstate were closed for about an hour, while crews cleared the semi from the road. Around 5:30 a.m., one lane reopened. Police are not sure when they will reopen the second lane.

    The cause of the crash is under investigation.

    He won't be driving for quite a while. Unless he comes on here and Chinatown has some suggestions..... Lol. Seriously, good he wasn't hurt, but that's it for that driver.
