*****************************UPDATE*********************************
All traffic lanes are now open on Eastbound I-94.
Kalamazoo Department of Public Safety and Michigan State Police worked together to investigate a traffic crash involving a semi-truck that left the roadway and rolled onto its side. During the investigation information was obtained that a vehicle moved into the semi-trucks’ travel lane causing the semi driver to take evasive action to avoid the collision. During the maneuver the semi had a minor collision with an un-involved vehicle and then the semi left the roadway. The vehicle that initially caused the incident left the scene. There were no injuries sustained during the crash. Drivers are reminded to give large vehicles extra room on the roadway as they take more time to maneuver.
