An exit ramp off a busy interstate was temporarily shut down on Friday after a tractor-trailer tipped over.

The driver of the big rig says he was traveling down the interstate 140 ramp when the load of flattened junk cars on the back of the truck shifted.

The shift in weight caused the semitruck to fall over.

The driver had to kick out the windshield to get out, but was not injured.

The exit ramp was shut down until crews could get the tractor-trailer right side up again.
