NBC10 First Alert Traffic reporter Sheila Watko warns you to be careful as you start your Wednesday morning commute after rain fell and made roads slick.
Lanes were closed in both directions of the Blue Route (Interstate 476) near Ridge Pike after a crash involving at least two tractor-trailers before 6 a.m.
It appears an Amazon big rig smashed through the median blocking the left lane of the northbound side.
A car was wedged underneath the truck.

The Amazon truck also blocked a southbound lane. A second tractor-trailer -- that jackknifed -- blocked the right lane, so only the middle lane got through.
By 8:30 a.m., the southbound lanes were open, Watko said. However only one northbound lanes was getting by.

By mid-day, all lanes in both directions were back to normal.
This was among several crashes in the area Wednesday morning. So please, take it easy out there.
