Weather was a likely contributor to an accident on Emerson Way and Bingo Drive early
Sunday morning. According to the California Highway Patrol, a Stockton man was stopped at the stop sign at Bingo Way when a Nevada woman approached the stop sign, braked but slid on
the wet roadway and rear-ended the Stockton
man. Neither driver complained of injuries, but this is a reminder that, early
in the rainy season, road oils built up over the summer and rain mix to make
roads very slick.
