Accident on Tabeau Road Tuesday Morning

slide14Around 7:30 Tuesday morning, a car pulled out of Tabeau road in front of a Volcano Telephone truck towing a trailer with large spools of cable on it. According to TSPN reporter Bill Lavallie, the truck driver’s vision was hampered by early morning sun -- when the car continued into its path, the driver of the truck applied his brakes but was unable to stop in time. The driver of the car was taken to the hospital by ambulance. The California High Patrol is still investigating the cause of the accident at press time. Witnesses on the scene said this is a very difficult intersection at this time of the morning because of the sunlight and the fact that eastbound drivers cannot see very well as they approach the intersection.  A Bill Lavallie story
