OPP have charged a 35-year-old truck driver with careless driving and he had his license suspended on the spot after the tractor trailer he was driving hit the median on Highway 401 westbound near Napanee early yesterday (Saturday) morning.
The highway was closed for nine hours.
The driver, Maxime Lapointe of Quebec was not seriously injured but blew a “warn” on a roadside breath test.
The transport leaked quite a bit of fluid that was described as being non-toxic and a heavy tow truck and crane had to be used to remove the vehicle from the median.
