According to Monroe County Police, the accident happened after a vehicle with a flat tire moved to the side of the westbound lane. In the slow-moving traffic a driver of a minivan lost control of their vehicle, crossed the centerline, striking a pickup truck in the eastbound lane causing the pickup to flip.
