‘Dash cam from semi tells the story’ of wrong way truck on Oklahoma highway

The Tulsa Police Department (TPD) shared a trucker’s dash cam video to explain why a semi truck was spotted driving in the wrong direction on the Broken Arrow Expressway this week.

On January 29, 2026, police shared video from an incident that occurred earlier this week in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

From TPD:

“WRONG WAY SEMI ON THE BA EXPRESSWAY

You might have seen or heard about a semi driving the wrong direction on the BA Expressway earlier this week.

Dash cam from the semi tells the story. The semi was headed westbound near 129th E. Ave. when a Kia began changing lanes, likely unaware the semi was there.

The semi veered onto the snowy shoulder, causing the trailer to jackknife and swing the cab in the opposite direction of traffic. The semi drove eastbound in the wrong direction back to the ramp at 129th to get his trailer back behind his truck.

Fortunately, no one was injured in this incident.

As the snow melts, cold nights can lead to refreezing and slick conditions. We want to encourage all motorists to take caution, especially at night, as the unthawing continues across Tulsa!

Just an FYI, we made contact with the driver of the Kia, who was cooperative. They told us they were unaware that they cut off the truck while changing lanes. Their information was documented in the report.“
