Driver crashes car into guardrail on Milwaukee's south side

The Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office is investigating a crash that happened on northbound I-94/43 just south of Becher Street on Tuesday morning, Jan. 24. 

A Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) camera captured the wreck which happened around 5:30 a.m. 

The WisDOT video shows the car involved in the wreck appears to be traveling faster than the speed limit while in the center lane. Moments later, the speeding car approached a slower vehicle, the driver loses control of the car, and the vehicle slams into a guardrail on the driver's side – just prior to the Becher Street exit.
