OSP Responded to Motor Vehicle Crash on I-5
The Oregon State Police responded to a motor vehicle crash on Interstate 5 near milepost 73.5 Friday morning.
A white tractor-trailer was parked on the shoulder due to a vehicle-related issue. A brown Honda passenger car traveling southbound entered a left curve and failed to maintain its lane, causing the driver to lose control and collide with the underside of the stationary semi-trailer.
After impact, the Honda spun across both lanes of travel and came to rest in the center median. The driver then drove the vehicle to the shoulder for safety. The Honda sustained heavy rear-end damage and was towed by AllStar Towing.
The driver was transported with suspected minor injuries. The semitrailer sustained minor damage and was able to leave the scene.
