The Ski Barn truck ended up in a water detention area on the southbound highway just past the Garden State Parkway around 9 a.m. Tuesday, May 17.

The condition of the hospitalized driver couldn't immediately be determined.

Belfi's Towing removed the truck as rubberneckers thickened the already-busy highway.
