A trucker from Kitchener has been charged for a rollover that shut down part of Highway 401 for about five hours Thursday morning.
Elgin County OPP say it happened west of London around 5:45 a.m., near Iona Road.
The driver allegedly lost control, and his truck went into the centre median and rolled over. The truck then spilled a load of scrap metal, and forced the shut down of all westbound 401 lanes.
No one was hurt.
Police say 45-year old Trevor Simms has been charged with careless driving.
