Overturned semi-truck shuts down I-95 NB ramp to Turnpike

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – A semi-truck overturned early Tuesday morning on the northbound Interstate 95 onramp to Florida’s Turnpike, shutting down the ramp.

The accident occurred just before 4 a.m. in the Golden Glades area in Miami-Dade County.

According to Florida Highway Patrol Lt. Alex Camacho, the driver of the semi-truck lost control, causing the vehicle to overturn.

“The semi-truck came to final rest on the outside lane of the exit ramp, on its right side,” Camacho said.

The closure forced some drivers to exit at the ramp westbound to the Palmetto Expressway.

It’s unclear if anyone was injured.
