Driver Charged After Transport Flips Upside Down

A Hamilton truck driver has been charged after a tractor trailer flipped on its roof in Sarnia Saturday afternoon.

Lambton OPP say they responded at 2:50pm to the Hwy. 402 eastbound off-ramp to southbound Hwy. 40.

Police say the driver of a transport truck was driving too fast and lost control on the ramp.

The ramp was closed for several hours while the box trailer, believed to be filled with fruit, was off-loaded and the vehicle was removed.

Murtadha Alkhafaji, 26, from Hamilton is now charged with careless driving.
