JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Several lanes of I-95 northbound at Philips Highway, near the Atlantic Blvd. exit, were closed Saturday morning due to a jack-knifed semi.

The crash happened around 7:00 a.m.

According to the Florida Highway Patrol the tractor-trailer veered into the emergency lane to avoid striking a small car. The car had lost control on the wet roadway.

The semi jack-knifed and came to rest on top the concrete median.

At one time, northbound lanes were closed down except for one lane while the Florida Highway Patrol investigated.

The truck walked away from the crash with minor injuries.
