Truck and Car Collision
Though police did not provide significant information about the accident or its causes, news crews and helicopters at the scene showed that a white car had struck the rear passenger corner of a white box truck. It is unclear what caused the accident, but the car’s hood and roof were partially under the vehicle's rear end.
The accident took place at about 5:45 pm. News crews showed the traffic backup for some time. Cars had to pass through a single lane of traffic past the accident. Police and rescuers did not report any injuries, and there was initially no information about the cause of the accident. Police were investigating.
Box Truck Accidents
Trucks have numerous blind spots, or areas where they cannot easily see a car located next to or behind them. In this accident, it seems the driver of the white car may have been in a blind spot, though it is not clear who struck whom in this accident. A full investigation becomes necessary in these cases.
