The motorhome struck the semi truck during the pass attempt, causing the driver to lose control. The motorhome overturned and came to a stop off the interstate.
Battle, Leah Suzensky, 40, and three juveniles in the motor home suffered minor injuries.
Truck driver Brian Turman Poarch, 44, was not hurt.
