The vehicle came to rest on its right side in the ditch.
The driver and passenger, who was sleeping in the trailer's sleeper berth at the time of the crash, were not injured. The trailer sustained moderate damage.
Troopers report alcohol was not a factor in the crash. S.R. 4 was closed earlier this morning while troopers worked to remove the Freightliner from the ditch.
