USDOT boss speaks out on video of wrong way truck driver traveling through Indiana toll booth

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy recently reacted to a video that depicts a semi truck driver confronting a fellow truck driver who is going the wrong way through a toll booth in Indiana.

The dash cam video was captured on October 11, 2025, and shared by TWOSU NEWS.

The dash cammer described the incident:

“I was driving west on interstate 90 in Indiana when I watched a semi truck drive the wrong way through the toll booth on 10/11/2025 at 03:30. Fearing he would cause a head on crash, I blocked him to see what the heck he was doing.“

The video was reshared on X.com (formerly Twitter) by Duffy, who said that his team is reaching out to learn more. 

“My team has reached out to the trucker who recorded this chilling video. He did the right thing reporting the trucker driving the wrong way to police. This easily could have ended in disaster. Foreign truck drivers not being able to understand the rules of our roads is a crisis that is putting lives in danger. The U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) is doing the work to fix it and SAVE LIVES!” said Duffy.
