Albany, NY (November 11, 2025) – A tractor-trailer overturned Tuesday afternoon near the I-87/I-90 interchange, causing traffic delays during the evening commute, according to New York State Police.
The crash occurred around 3:50 p.m. near Exit 24, blocking the left lane on the Thruway. No other vehicles were involved in the incident, and authorities confirmed that no injuries were reported.
State Police and Thruway maintenance crews responded promptly to secure the area and clear the overturned truck. Tow services were called to upright and remove the vehicle from the roadway.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation, but officials noted that traffic congestion persisted through rush hour as crews worked to reopen the affected lane.
Understanding Liability in Tractor-Trailer Accidents
Even when no one is injured, tractor-trailer crashes can involve complex liability issues related to equipment failure, driver fatigue, or improper loading. If negligence is determined, the trucking company or maintenance contractors could be held accountable for damages or roadway hazards caused.
Victims or motorists affected by similar accidents should seek guidance from an experienced New York tractor-trailer accident attorney to ensure their rights are protected and to explore compensation for vehicle damage, lost time, or related losses.
