NJSP Sgt. Adam Grossman said the crash remains under investigation, a day after the Ford F350 overturned and the camper tilted precariously over the bridge, blocking two lanes of the highway.

The State Police Incident Management Unit, along with the New Jersey Department of Transportation, diverted traffic from the area following the 10 a.m. crash.

Two female occupants of the Ford got out OK, without serious injury, Grossman said.
