Semi-truck driver seriously injured in crash on I-75

Cobb police are investigating a one-vehicle collision involving a semi-truck, which occurred on I-75 northbound north of Wade Green Road on November 10, 2026, at approximately 2:37 a.m. The driver was taken to a local hospital with serious injuries. According to a news release, a red 2020 Freightliner Cascadia commercial road tractor– which was pulling an intermodal trailer— was traveling north on I-75 approaching Hickory Grove Road in the right lane. The driver failed to maintain his lane, and veered onto the grass shoulder bordering the eastern edge of I-75. It began to rotate side-to-side around its vertical axis in a counter-clockwise direction, while still moving north. The semi then rolled onto its right side before colliding with the concrete barrier which separates I-75 from the Northwest Corridor. The driver was then ejected from the vehicle and into the left lane of travel, as the tractor came to a final, uncontrolled rest. The collision is still under investigation. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Cobb County Police Department at (770) 499-3987.
