BENSALEM, Pa. – A tractor-trailer carrying empty beer kegs fell off an exit ramp in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, Tuesday.

The truck and its payload spilled onto the roadway below.

The 18-wheeler lost control on an I-95 overpass and plunged onto the northbound lanes, according to authorities.

A driver in one car then slammed into the wreckage.

Officials say it is amazing no one was seriously hurt.

State police were forced to shut down the northbound side of I-95 at the scene for about an hour and a half as they cleaned up the accident and removed the kegs.
