A tractor trailer overturned in Sunrise, shutting down a lane of traffic as crews attempted to remove the vehicle, according to officials from the Sunrise Police department.
The accident shut down the exit ramp from the Sawgrass expressway to West Sunrise Boulevard.
The driver suffered minor injuries and was not taken to the hospital.
The truck ended up in a water retention area, which caused the lane closure as crews worked to remove it.
Delays are expected in the area.
A tractor accident can be devastating due to the size, weight, and power of agricultural machinery. These accidents often result in serious injuries, especially when tractors are involved in rollovers, roadway collisions, or equipment malfunctions.

Tractor accidents may occur on farms, construction sites, or public roads, and liability can involve operators, employers, or equipment manufacturers. An experienced tractor accident lawyer can investigate the circumstances, gather evidence, and determine who should be held accountable. Victims may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and long‑term rehabilitation. Dealing with insurance companies alone can be overwhelming after a serious injury.
