Car Crash on the 55 Causes Long Delays

A devastating crash on the 55 freeway led authorities to cut a man out of his vehicle and airlift him to a nearby hospital on Friday afternoon.

The car accident occurred around 4 p.m. on the southbound 55, according to the California Highway Patrol.

At least two vehicles were reportedly involved.

Fire crews cut the driver out of the van before airlifting him to a local trauma center. All the other occupants of the other vehicles were either treated on the scene or uninjured.

The northbound and southbound lanes of the 55 were closed as the helicopter landed to remove the man, which caused delays of up to an hour.

Rainy Weather Causes Increase in Car Accidents

An increase in car accidents has been reported throughout Southern California due to the rainy weather.

On Monday morning, the California Highway Patrol (CHP) closed four lanes on the westbound 22 near the Magnolia Street exit because a three-car crash blocked all of the lanes. The CHP worked to clear all of the debris left from the accident, and the lanes reopened at 12 p.m. One person was taken to the UCI Medical Center to be treated for injuries.

Around 6 a.m., the driver of a Toyota 4Runner lost control of his vehicle and flipped over the center divider into oncoming traffic. One injury was reported.

A collision also occurred between a Vons big-rig and another vehicle on the southbound 57 near Tonner Canyon at 11 a.m. on Tuesday.

Finally, a collision between a Mustang and a Mercedes was reported on the southbound I-5 near the city Drive. The Mercedes crashed into the center divider, and the Mustang ended up in the number 1 lane.
