Truck Crashes Across Median At Rockland/Jersey Border, Jams Thruway, Route 17 Truck Crashes Across Median At Rockland/Jersey Border, Jams Thruway, Route 17
Truck Crashes Across Median At Rockland/Jersey Border, Jams Thruway, Route 17 A large rental truck crashed on the northbound New York State Thruway in Suffern near the New Jersey exit for southbound Route 17 Friday afternoon, jamming traffic in both directions. A heavy-duty wrecker was needed to right the truck, which fell across the divider with its rear wheels facing north and cab facing south a quarter-mile from the Route 17 flyover just before 2 p.m. All lanes eventually were reopened. Traffic in New Jersey had backed up to Route 202. The crash was barely a quarter-mile from the New Jersey exit for Route 17 (in distance).Jerry DeMarco PHOTOS BELOW: Courtesy…
