A truck with a trailer load of shipping containers blocked motorists headed into Whangārei, around 1km south of the SH1 Loop Rd roundabout, when it crossed the centre line and went into a ditch on the wrong side of the road around 8am. Police directed traffic along the busy stretch of road until a tow truck was able to remove the vehicle, which had blocked half a lane. No one was injured in the incident.
