“Traffic began diverting around a disabled Pontiac vehicle and as traffic began stopping abruptly, two Freightliner CMVs struck a white Ford Transit van, which then struck a Hyundai car, that then hit a Toyota Corolla, causing it to overturn, making contact with a Audi A4. The Freightliner steering to the left while striking the Ford van also overturned,” GSP troopers said.
