Video Released Of “Wrong Way” Truck Driver
American Truckers released the video footage on social media.
Raleigh May Cupples encountered a terrifying situation Tuesday on the I-55 bridge when a semi-truck veered into her lane, driving the wrong way. Initially mistaking it for a towed vehicle, she quickly realized the danger as the truck barreled toward her.
Arkansas State Police responded swiftly on the Tennessee side of the bridge, with a trooper approaching the truck, weapon drawn, before attempting to engage the driver. Video footage captured by Cupples shows the trooper trying to remove the resistant driver from the cab.
With the situation escalating, additional officers arrived, one armed with a rifle, and together they forcibly removed the driver from the vehicle. The man was subdued and taken to the ground, ending the hazardous incident.
