Tractor Trailer Overturns On Highway 34 Ramp: Cops

WALL, NJ - A tractor trailer overturned Thursday on the ramp from Highway 34 South to Highway 195 West in Wall Township, authorities said.

At approximately 9 a.m., the Wall Township Police Department responded to the scene, where an investigator later revealed that a 33-year-old Bellmawr man operating a 2003 Freightliner truck failed to properly negotiate the ramp, resulting in the truck and trailer overturning onto its side.

The trailer attached was filled with residential waste, authorities said.

The driver reported a non-life threatening injury and was transported to Jersey Shore University Medical Center by Wall Police emergency medical services personnel.

The ramps from Highway 34 South to Highway 195 West and from Highway 138 West to Highway 34 South were both closed for around four hours until the scene was cleared.

The New Jersey Department of Transportation and Glendola Fire Department both responded to the scene and assisted. The driver was issued a motor vehicle summons for careless driving, police said.
