[Updated 11 a.m.] All lanes on I-95 southbound near exit 136 (Centreport Parkway) in Stafford County are now open and the detour has been lifted following the crash.
According to the Virginia Department of Transportation, southbound travelers may experience residual delays on I-95, Route 1 and arterial routes.
At 8:32 a.m., a tractor-trailer traveling southbound on I-95 ran off of the right side of the roadway and collided with a guard rail. The impact caused the tractor-trailer to overturn and catch fire, said Virignia State Police Sgt. Brent Coffey.
Emergency crews called a helicopter to take the victim to a hospital. Crews cleared the helicopter to land on the highway.
The driver suffered serious injuries as a result of the crash. The county’s sheriff’s office is helping to divert traffic from the highway at milepost 136, near the airport.

Inspired by local physicians who were among the nation’s first to adopt the concierge medicine model, Northern Virginia is now a hub for its surging popularity. These leading physicians are redefining the patient experience with same-day appointments, direct availability, unhurried visits, and deeply personalized care:
After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
