Definitely take the lower bridge if you can

I just saw the crash and the car is on the tow truck but it’s still backed up

Thank you to the two wonderful witnesses who stayed to give statements to the police after we were hit by a vehicle going at high speed. Thankfully no one was seriously injured.

Thanks for the update; glad you’re OK.

Glad there were no serious injuries and glad folks took the time to support you as witnesses.

Wow! How does that happen? Other than a “vehicle going at high speed?”

Like, do you have to cut them off to make them do that? Or, speed up so they can’t pass you on the right, or…….?

I will never understand why the traffic on the other side of the barrier has to become congested because of an accident like this. Drive tour car, don’t gawk…be attentive, and keep moving. SFD needs a hologram curtain to put up so the westbound traffic can’t see the accident…

geez, I sound cranky…maybe I should include “and get off my lawn”…

Sorry, comment time is over.
