Both directions of State Route 18 in Issaquah closed early Tuesday morning after a semi-truck carrying a load of eggs was involved in a crash near the Raging River Bridge. Photos from the scene show boxes of broken eggs spilled across the roadway.

Washington State Patrol Trooper Rick Johnson shared dashcam video from the semi-truck carrying the eggs on X Tuesday morning. The video shows the truck driving down SR 18 around 3:35 a.m. as lights from an oncoming vehicle can be seen in the distance. As the oncoming semi-truck approaches, the video shows the truck across the center line and nearly hit the other semi-truck head-on.

Data from the dashcam video shows the semi-truck was traveling between 57-55 mph before the crash, but slowed to 44 mph just before the other semi-truck sideswiped the vehicle. The truck then comes to a stop on the highway.

Johnson said neither semi-truck driver was seriously injured in the crash.
