Traffic is moving smoothly again along I-44 near Catoosa. The Oklahoma Highway Patrol says the driver of a semi-ran off the road around five o'clock Wednesday morning and overturned causing a fuel leak.

A container of calcium carbide also spilled, which if mixed with the diesel fuel could have created a hazardous situation.

That accident has been cleaned up and the truck has been moved. The driver of the truck was taken to a Tulsa hospital with a broken arm.
