Truck jackknifes on I-75. Monroe County officials urge caution on wet roads
Officials in Monroe County are urging caution as rain has caused unsafe driving conditions, and a tractor-trailer jackknifed on Interstate 75 Tuesday evening.
The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office announced the incident at around 7:45 p.m. Tuesday. No injuries were reported in the incident, but the right two lanes of I-75 near mile marker 180 were blocked off.
“We urge everyone to please use caution while driving and if you do not need to be on the roads please stay at home,” the sheriff’s office said in a news release.
Photos of the incident showed a truck cab hauling an Amazon tractor-trailer ran off the road and was facing the wrong direction in a ditch.
