SACRAMENTO, CA (Sep. 8th) – A video has recently emerged showing a semi truck colliding into multiple vehicles on Interstate 5 in Sacramento. The accident occurred Tuesday, September 8th at approximately 6:00 PM.
The video shows an orange semi truck accelerating into traffic that seems to be slowing down. The semi truck maintained its speed and collided into multiple smaller vehicles for a length of time.
The truck appears to not have a driver, suggesting that the driver may have fallen below the dashboard. Nine people were hospitalized and one was killed due to the incident. Eleven vehicles in total were damaged.
