GREENSVILLE COUNTY, Va. (WRIC) — A driver has been cited for reckless driving after a crash involving three tractor-trailers on Interstate 95 in Greensville County in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
At 12:17 a.m. on June 18, Virginia State Police responded to a three-vehicle crash on I-95 South in Greensville County.
Police said a tractor-trailer heading south on I-95 accidentally passed by the ramp onto Exit 4 and quickly braked. The other tractor-trailers heading south couldn’t avoid the stopped tractor-trailer and a chain reaction crash ensued involving all three tractor-trailers.
The impact of the crash ripped open the first vehicle and caused canned goods that were inside to spill onto the road.

One of the other two drivers was flown to a nearby hospital for treatment of serious injuries.
