Dashcam video shows a multi-vehicle crash on I-44 that left two people injured

OKLAHOMA CITY (KOKH) — Dashcam video shared by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol (OHP) shows a crash involving a semi-truck and multiple vehicles.

The accident happened just before 7 a.m. Wednesday on northbound I-44 south of Northwest 36th.

The video shows traffic backing up in a lane leading onto I-44.

A white pickup truck crashed into an SUV in front of it and then collided with a semi-truck.

OHP said the wheel on the passenger side of the tractor-trailer came off and the driver lost control of the steering.

OHP says drivers need to pay attention and look at the road while driving.

The pickup driver wasn't paying attention and didn't stop in time to stop because of traffic, OHP said.

The semi-trailer and eight vehicles were involved in the accident.

OHP says two people were taken to the hospital and are expected to be OK.
