A semi’s trailer collapsed on Friday, blocking a U-turn lane on a Texas highway.
It happened in Austin, on Highway 290 at Berkman Drive, around 8 a.m. in the morning.
According to KXAN’s Amanda Dugan, the truck accidentally “drove up the side” of the overpass wall, which caused the elevated trailer to strike the top of the overpass. The impact ripped open the roof of the trailer.
The driver was not injured.
The U-turn lane was shut down for several hours in order for the truck to be remove. It has since reopened.
