San Diego Highway Accident Injures 2 Workers
Sep 13th, 2009 by RichmondJ
Two highway employees working for two separate companies were injured yesterday after both were hit by the same vehicle on SR-15. At around 10:40 in the morning, a car identified as a 1992 Infiniti J-30 crashed into them on the shoulder. The driver, a 50-year-old San Diego woman, stated that she hadn’t been paying attention at the time, and was instead looking for change.
The first of the two injured, a county probation worker, was just one of three workers who had been assigned to pick up trash on the side of SR-15. As the three men performed their work, a van containing a CalsTran worker followed in close proximity to alert traffic of the probation workers. Another CalsTran worker involved was in charge of the injured worker and two others, and was outside of the van when the woman veered towards the shoulder.
After not noticing what was happening, the woman landed into the back of the van and, in an apparently failed effort to avoid further damage, veered left and ended on the shoulder, where the Calstran worker and the probation worker stood. Both were hospitalized after the highway accident with what were called “serious” injuries.
