Video shows a white pick-up truck hitting a SUV in front and then swerving over.
The pick-up then hits a semi ripping the passenger side wheel off so the driver had no steering.
Two people were transported to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
The semi and eight other vehicles were involved in the crash.
Oklahoma Highway Patrol said the driver of the pick-up was looking down while driving.
OHP told drivers to “pay attention” after the multi-vehicle collision.
Trooper Preston Cox said: “The Oklahoma patrol would like to remind everyone again to be vigilant and also to be aware of your surroundings inside the vehicle and outside.
“The driver was not paying attention while northbound on Interstate 44.
“You can see several vehicles to the north of this vehicle already braking in this.
“The driver of this truck does not brake and until too late.”
