Tractor Trailer vs Car
HAMILTON TOWNSHIP (MERCER)--The occupants of a
car amazingly escaped without injury after a tractor-trailer overturned and
landed on top of the smaller vehicle on the New Jersey Turnpike Wednesday
afternoon May 14, 2008.
The accident along the southbound side of the
Turnpike, just south of Exit 7A, occurred about 12:30 p.m.
Officials said firefighters and emergency
medical crews from Robbinsville Township and Allentown responded and arrived
to find the car's occupants already out of the vehicle and uninjured.
Firefighters helped free the tractor-trailer's
driver from his wrecked cab. Officials said the man was checked out as a
precaution but did not require medical treatment.
The accident, which closed one southbound lane
to traffic, remains under investigation by the state police.
