A white Cadillac sedan was reported facing the wrong direction on westbound US-60 near Mill Avenue after 5 a.m. Tuesday.

Arizona Department of Public Safety says four troopers were able to make contact with the vehicle as it was stopped in the shoulder next to the HOV lane.

Troopers made a quick traffic break in the westbound lanes to get the vehicle facing the right direction in traffic.

DPS updated ABC15, saying it appears that the vehicle was initially traveling with traffic, blew a tire and spun around, and then began traveling in the wrong direction.

Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
