A semi-truck that traveled the wrong way for nearly three miles on a Missouri highway has been identified as being registered to Abdiwali Ahmed, a Minnesota resident, according to authorities.

Witnesses reported that the truck was moving against traffic and, rather than pulling over as vehicles approached, accelerated to approximately fifty miles per hour.

Despite the grave danger posed by the situation, no collisions were reported.

The Missouri Highway Patrol is investigating the incident.

Officials said the truck is operated by Cargo Transportation LLC, a small trucking business with two registered drivers.

Authorities indicated that one of the drivers cannot read road signs, yet has logged more than eighty-one thousand miles behind the wheel.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy confirmed that the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration is now reviewing the company as part of a broader effort to strengthen safety standards and oversight of commercial semi-truck operators.

The push comes amid heightened federal attention on roadway safety and enforcement following a series of high-profile fatal crashes involving commercial drivers, including cases involving foreign nationals.

Federal authorities are continuing their review of the company and its compliance with safety regulations.
