A truck fell off of a Highway 225 overpass in Pasadena, following an accident involving two 18-wheelers. The accident occurred on the eastbound lanes of Highway 225 near Red Bluff Road, yesterday afternoon.

Pasadena police reported that the accident occurred when two 18-wheelers began hydroplaning due to rainy weather and collided on the eastbound lanes of Highway 225, causing one truck to roll several times before tumbling over the edge of the overpass and onto the feeder road below.

The driver of the truck was able to extract himself from the vehicle before it hit the guardrail and fell over the edge of the overpass. The other truck, a Bud Light vehicle, was able to come to a stop on the freeway. The driver of the truck was taken to a nearby hospital, having suffered minor injuries.
