ANOTHER ACCIDENT on 71 AT EAST ENTRANCE (ALMOST)

...report of a truck over the bridge almost at our east entrance on 71. To be more precise, it appears from the pictures provided by a neighbor, that the truck went BEHIND the guardrail. Traffic stopped, hazardous waste cleanup underway. (Diesel and oil, I presume, since the truck appears to be carrying mulch or dirt.) This was reported at about noon. All traffic was stopped - a large crane was brought in to remove the truck. It sure has the look of a brake failure. If that's the case, the driver probably did an heroic thing to avoid hitting someone.

It was later reported that the driver was unhurt and the truck came to a stop before entering the creek. No other vehicles were involved.
