The driver apparently was late in noticing south-bound vehicles had stopped in front of him to turn left off of Glenmore Road..

He slammed on the brakes and swerved to avoid a rear-end collision.

The maneuver flipped the truck.

Police say the driver, who was shaken up but unhurt, won’t be ticketed as he didn’t hit anything.
