A trucker is unhurt after his semi truck overturned completely, blocking traffic in Arizona on Tuesday afternoon.
The accident happened on April 24th at approximately 2:15 p.m. in Sonita, Arizona.
According to the Sonita-Elgin Fire District, the big rig was traveling on State Route 82 near milepost 41.5 when the unnamed driver lost control and flipped almost completely upside down, blocking the roadway.
Fortunately, the truck driver was able to escape the wrecked rig on his own and did not sustain any injuries. The exact reason for the rollover is still under investigation.
SR 82 was blocked in both directions for around four hours as crews worked with heavy duty tow trucks to clear the overturned rig from the roadway. It was reopened at around 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday evening.
