Backups were initially reported, but traffic had resumed as normal in the hours following the crash.
Photos and video from the scene showed an orange and yellow Oscar Mayer Wienermobile being hauled away on the platform of a semi truck. Another angle showed the vehicle flipped over on its side, with an overturned hotdog atop the automobile.
According to the Wienermobile tracker website, the vehicle’s next stop in the Chicago area is set to come July 27, when the Wienermobile is scheduled to make an appearance at a Tony’s Fresh Market in Round Lake Beach.
The Wienermobile, which travels year-round, uses “six different hot dogs on wheels driving around the country at all times,” the tracking website said.
