:eek: Holy smokes! Thats insane, I can't believe no one else got injured or killed for that matter. Very lucky.
I feel for the locals there who are going to have to deal with the traffic nightmare.

Wow, John was just in SanFrancisco last week for 4 days. We have many friends there. Such a busy city with traffic.

We had the same thing happen here in Houston at one of our busiest interchanges on Friday. The drvier died in that one. He was carrying deisel fuel and was taking a shortcut it was illegal for him to take. No connection, I'm sure, but it is strange that these have happened so close together.
