Semi Tractor-trailer drive injured in a NE Iowa accident

A semi tractor-trailer driver from eastern Iowa was injured in an accident Thursday afternoon, in Delaware County. The Iowa State Patrol reports a 2015 Freightliner semi driven by 60-year-old Michael Nelson, of Dundee, was traveling south on 130th Avenue, when Nelson attempted to pick-up a GPS unit that had fallen. When the semi drifted onto the right shoulder, Nelson over-corrected, resulting in a loss of control.
