NEAR NAPLES, Fla. (WSVN) — Several lanes at a toll plaza on Interstate 75 were closed after a semi-truck crashed.
The booth is at the entrance to Alligator Alley.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the left side SunPass lane and the left toll lane are still opened.
The toll booth worker was taken to the hospital.
Two people in the truck suffered minor injuries.
FHP troopers said the truck driver fell asleep behind the wheel.
They also said the driver woke up just before reaching the toll plaza and hit the brakes — causing the trailer to jackknife and collide with the toll plaza.
Traffic in the area was congested as police continued to investigate the crash.
