Avoid area overturned tanker west bound. Major leak. News should be breaking story soon.

White cloud hovering over crash area.

Accident at 7:52 pm all lanes closed west bound according to LADOTD.

That was from the fire department spraying water on the fire.

Really because it was spewing upwards like a chemical release or smoke from a fire. Not a fire suppressant.

The tankers, eighteen wheel dump trucks, and logging trucks are the main culprits. These guys think they are driving Ferraris. It’s out of hand.

No idea if he’s right or not, but water does tend to create steam when you spray it on a hot arse fire…

You have no idea WTF you’re talking about. $50 to your donut some AHole with Texas plates f’ed up and swerved in front of the tanker causing the driver to over correct - product surged causing the rig to flip

Doubt it. Those a-hole truck drivers wait for cars to come up on them and swerve in the left lane making you slam on your breaks. Then proceed to drive 69 in the left lane for 5 miles while they pass another truck doing 68.5

I guarantee the truck driver was at fault. They are the worst drivers in the road.

Came thru it about 30 min ago. Should have gotten off at Juban. Was able to get off at Range. DSPD had the on-ramps blocked at range

I say this in every one of these threads. 12 is the Bermuda Triangle of roads. Straight and multi lane yet people just run into each other, the wall or the ditch or flip over for no reason whatsoever. On a daily basis. It's actually impressive.

I’ve been saying it for years that I wish I12 was right lane only for big rigs. No lane swapping.
