A man driving a 1994 Pontiac Grand Prix crashed into a parked semi tractor-trailer on Thursday just after 3 a.m. at a rest park ramp off I-65 in Jasper County.

Investigators say that the man driving the car drove off the ramp and crashed directly into the parked truck from behind, causing the blunt force trauma that killed him.

The truck was reportedly parked illegally and its driver, who was asleep in the truck at the time of the crash, was cited for the parking violation.

Trucking accidents are the causes of many deaths on our nation's highways each year. If you or someone close to you has experienced an injury or death in an accident involving a tractor-trailer truck, it may be in your best interest to contact an attorney to discuss your rights.
