Three Vehicle Accident Causes Road Delays

A truck accident in Pasadena involving a car, a big rig, and a pickup truck caused both traffic and Metro delays when two of the vehicles became entangled and wound up on the tracks.

Reports say that the accident occurred when a car made an unsafe lane-change on the eastbound 210 freeway, cutting off the big rig.  Both vehicles lost control, resulting in the big-rig swerving into a pickup truck and pushing the pick-up truck onto the Metro tracks.

The driver and passengers in the pick-up truck and big-rig were transported to Huntington Memorial hospital for review, although no one seemed to be seriously hurt.

The truck accident also resulted in delays for both the Metro service and freeway.  It took several hours to clear the roads and rails, causing rail service to be delayed by over twenty minutes and backing up traffic on the 210 freeway for an hour.
