Another Big Rig Crash on I-5 but this time its in Lodi

I remember some Central Valley residents talked about CA-99 having issues with big rigs crashes in the past too and its not just I-5.

Bing101, your title is a little misleading...  To say a driver was killed *after* a big rig crashes through the center divider is not entirely accurate.

The driver killed in this crash was driving the wrong-way on northbound I-5 and collided head-on with the big rig.  Only then did the big rig go through the center divider and hit two cars in the southbound lanes of I-5.  The drivers of the two southbound cars suffered minor injuries according to the news report.
