“Highway 1 eastbound … remained closed for seven-hours as … were on scene investigating”
While that was a terrible accident, it looks like pure incompetence and ignorance from the stated agencies, for the public needs. What in the world required 7 hours of investigation, to keep the Hwy closed ???
Everyone’s goal must be to quickly and safely take care of the victims, do the scene investigation AND clear the roads… Right?
