The view from Chopper 11, as it flew over the scene, showed multiple flatbed tow-trucks carrying cars and SUVs that were involved in the accident.

Traffic was backed up for miles after the crash -- that happened after 9:30 a.m., not far from Eastchase Parkway -- forced police to shut the highway down. The bottleneck was still unsnarling during the lunch hour.

There have been no reports of injuries.
