The crash was like hundreds of others in the stretch of Interstate 75/71 in Covington that's called the Cut-in-the-Hill.

Just before 9 p.m. Monday night, three semis barreling down the steep incline that begins north of Kyle's Lane somehow got too close to each other and then all hell broke loose, with chunks of truck and cargo flying.

One of the trucks wound up sprawled across all four lanes of traffic, another went halfway over the hill.

No one was injured, but the northbound lanes at the Fifth Street exit were closed for two hours while crews cleaned up the spilled freight and removed the mangled trucks.

Such truck wrecks are becoming more common
