The driver lost control of the trailer, which struck a bridge embankment and jackknifed near milepost 36.7 in Morristown shortly after 3 a.m., NJSP Sgt. Philip Curry told Daily Voice.
The trailer was blocking several lanes and leaking diesel fuel and refrigerant following the crash, Curry said.
The driver suffered minor and non-life-threatening injuries in the crash, which remains under investigation, authorities said.
The Morris County Hazmat team responded to the scene for cleanup of the leaking fluids.
