Troopers said the tractor-trailer, loaded with drywall, was traveling north on I-75 when, for an unknown reason, it traveled onto the left shoulder, where the front left wheel struck the guardrail. The tractor-trailer then overturned in the median on its passenger side. As a result, the crash reduced interstate traffic to two lanes in both directions and slowed travel times significantly.
