On June 12, 2008, a tractor-trailer truck was traveling on Interstate 80 in Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, when the driver lost control of the truck. The truck then crashed into another tractor-trailer truck, blocking the right lane of the interstate, which caused a third tractor-trailer to maneuver around the accident. This caused a fourth tractor-trailer truck to get into an accident.

The driver of the fourth tractor-trailer truck was killed in the commercial truck accident. No other people involved in the fatal truck accident were seriously injured.

Authorities are treating the truck accidents as two separate accidents. The driver of the first tractor-trailer truck will be cited for careless driving.
