It happened Northbound between Junction 5 Two-Mile-Borris and Junction 4 Urlingford.
The trailer had cattle in it but it’s understood neither they nor the driver of the jeep have been badly injured.
The animals are now in a nearby field.
That stretch will remain closed for a time while the accident is being cleared.
