Truck Driver Dies in I-95 Rollover Near DanversPeabody Exit 70

State police said the rollover triggered hours of lane closures for cargo removal plus barrier repairs.

Overview

  • Massachusetts State Police said the tractor-trailer driver died after a rollover on I-95 northbound near Exit 70 at the DanversPeabody line.
  • The crash also involved a passenger vehicle reported as a white Honda SUV that came to rest in the grassy median.
  • MassDOT closed multiple lanes and the off-ramp for several hours, then lifted the final restrictions by early evening after cleanup.
  • Aerial video showed the truck on its side, a torn-up safety barrier, and cargo that looked like mulch strewn across the road.
  • Officials have not released the drivers’ names or the cause, and the prolonged response reflected the time needed to remove cargo and make the scene safe.
