Car Flips On I-95 In Icy Weather

BENSALEM, PA — Icy conditions had state police busy on the region's highways Tuesday morning, including a crash on Interstate 95 in which a car flipped onto its roof.

State police say the driver of the vehicle only suffered minor injuries in the crash, on I-95 northbound between the Academy Road/Linen Avenue exit and the PA 63 West/Woodhaven Road exit.

The wreck was on the side of the highway and did not appear to be causing major delays, according to images from a PennDOT traffic camera. It was a day when motorists already were advised to use caution because of the weather.

According to state police, the crash was one of three reported in the Lower Bucks area in roughly 20 minutes Tuesday morning.

Tuesday's crash was not far from the Woodhaven Road exit, where a fiery tanker truck crash snarled traffic on I-95 and sent two people to the hospital on Thursday.

PennDOT was warning motorists on Tuesday that, while roadways may not be covered in snow, they were slick and that black ice was a danger.
