A rollover crash involving a semi-trailer and a passenger car occurred on Thursday morning just off I-44 at Southwest 104th Street in southwest Oklahoma City. The accident caused traffic congestion, particularly for northbound drivers, according to live footage from Sky 5.

Aerial footage of a crash on I-44 showed tire marks leading to the vehicle, which had significant damage, including a shattered windshield. The person in the car sustained only minor injuries and was taken to the hospital. The semi-trailer involved in the incident appeared undamaged. Traffic slowed due to the Oklahoma City Police Department's presence on the shoulder as officers conducted their investigation. The scene was cleared when a wrecker service arrived to remove the car, as Sky 5 reported.

Following the incident, the specific off-ramp leading from I-44 to Southwest 104th Street where the crash took place was temporarily closed but has since reopened; Oklahoma City Police Department confirmed that at least one person received "minor injuries" in the crash, as detailed in a News 9.

Traffic on the northbound lanes has been significantly delayed following an incident. While initial reports did not confirm additional injuries, the situation has caused noticeable slowdowns, potentially affecting morning commutes. Drivers are advised to expect delays and consider alternative routes as emergency crews work to clear the area. Updates on the traffic situation are available on KFOR’s Live Traffic Map.
