A B-double carrying 40 tonnes of paper, put the brakes on peak-hour traffic, when it rolled on the Pacific Highway at Chinderah.
The northbound truck was trying to overtake a car just before two this morning, when the driver lost control.
“The truck probably skidded about 300 metres before it came to rest in the grass medium strip.”
800 litres of diesel spilt, reducing the highway to one lane in both directions.
The driver suffered head injuries.
