The morning commute started off badly for those traveling on the southbound 15 Freeway in Fontana.
A Sig Alert was issued after a tractor-trailer hauling sheetrock slammed into the trailer of another truck, splitting open the trailer and spilling all of the sheetrock onto the slow lane – blocking traffic in that lane.
The California Highway Patrol reported that at least one person was injured.
If you are injured in an accident caused by the actions of another person, contact an experienced San Bernardino Personal Injury attorney who can investigate on your behalf to determine if you are entitled to compensation for your injuries, any medical expenses and pain and suffering.

A woman and her young daughter were in an SUV traveling on the southbound 15 Freeway in Rancho Cucamonga when she lost control of the vehicle causing it to flip several times and roll down an embankment off the freeway.
California Highway Patrol, who responded to the accident, believe the incident was caused by a tire blow out. Officers gained access to the passengers trapped inside by using a cable.
The two suffered moderate injuries. They were taken by ambulance to a local hospital for treatment.
If the tire is determined to be faulty or have a defect, the owner of the vehicle may be able to file a lawsuit against the tire manufacturer. I hope the woman contacts an experienced San Bernardino Personal Injury attorney to discuss options on how to proceed.

Lunchtime traffic on the westbound 210 freeway in Highland was worse than usual this week. A pickup truck pulling a trailer crashed and went off the right shoulder, landing on the embankment nearby.
According to the California Highway Patrol, the truck was carrying hydrofluoric acid; it spilled all over the freeway, causing it to be closed for several hours. Hazmat crews worked throughout the afternoon to clean up the spill and reopen the freeway. The Centers for Disease Control stated that hydrofluoric acid is highly toxic – even through inhalation exposure.
CHP officials are investigating to determine why the driver lost control and crashed his vehicle. He was taken to a nearby hospital to be treated.
The driver is lucky that no one else was injured. However, if you are injured because of another person’s actions, contact a skilled San Bernardino Personal Injury attorney who will seek compensation for your injuries and medical expenses.
