MARION, Tenn. — Over the past year, the runaway truck ramp on I-24 in Marion County has seen its fair share of dramatic moments. Used primarily by semi trucks descending Monteagle Mountain, the ramp also occasionally catches unsuspecting four-wheelers.

We've compiled a curated list of traffic camera footage from April 2024 to May 2025, showcasing some of the most notable ramp uses. This compilation is more than just gripping video — it's a friendly reminder to inspect your brakes and approach steep grades with caution, especially on stretches like this one.

Not all footage made the cut — we’ve left out grainy and hard-to-see nighttime clips. What’s left is a watchable and educational look at how and when the ramp was used over the past 12 months.

Whether you’re a seasoned trucker or just curious about how these ramps work, this video list serves as a sobering yet fascinating reminder of why runaway ramps exist — and how often they’re actually used.
