The accident occurred just before 3:20 a.m. in the westbound lanes near milepost 9.4 in Bethlehem, NJSP Sgt. Philip Curry told Daily Voice.

A Chevrolet pickup truck was towing a passenger van on a trailer when the vehicle lost control, which caused the van to come loose from the trailer and roll over into the left lane, Curry said.

The roadway was shut down until around 5 a.m. No injuries were reported, Curry added.
