OAKRIDGE, OR (KPTV) -
A semitruck tipped over and dumped its load on Highway 58 east of Oakridge on Monday morning.
State troopers said the driver was headed west when he lost control around a turn and went off the road. The trailer rolled onto its side, spilling wood chips down the embankment. A hazmat crew was called out to clean up a small diesel leak, but traffic was not affected.
The driver was not hurt in the crash, and was ticketed for failure to maintain a lane of travel.
