Milford, CT(JusticeNewsFlash.com)–Connecticut state police continue to investigate a fatal multiple car crash collision set off by the driver on tractor-trailer on Interstate 95. The fatal 18 wheeler truck accident on I-95 in Milford closed down the major highway for hours on Wednesday as reported by the Associated Press (AP).

According to Connecticut state police highway accident officers, Woodbrow Phelps Jr., a 68 year-old Elkton, Maryland, truck driver died after he crashed his semi-truck into an SUV. The fatal truck wreck caused a chain reaction automobile accident involving six other motor vehicles. Apparently, Connecticut Department of Transportation (DOT) highway workers were recovering materials from an overnight highway construction project which required the I-95 traffic to be reduced to one lane when the crash occured. Police truck wreck investigators reopened all lanes to I-95 drivers about 8 hours after the fatal 18 wheeler truck accident.
