A tractor-trailer carrying french fries rolled over on the southbound side of Interstate 95 in Pittsfield on Monday night.
No one was injured in the rollover, according to Maine Department of Public Safety spokesman Steve McCausland.
The driver of the truck, Conor MacDonald, 24, of Prince Edward Island, Canada, was blinded by the setting sun when driving through a one lane construction zone near mile marker 152. In order to avoid hitting another vehicle, MacDonald drove the truck into the median side ditch, where the truck rolled, coming to rest on the driver’s side.
No french fries were spilled in the accident, but diesel fuel did leak out of the truck and was controlled by the Pittsfield Fire Department.
The interstate was reduced to one lane of traffic at the crash site while emergency crews cleaned up.
