There were no injuries, even in the tanker truck, and as of 5PM SB 880 is still closed. There were still about 20 trucks working on it when i went past on BART

Whoa, good thing I didnt have to work today. I hate traffic.. My left leg is gonna be all swal from all the clutch work

That sucks for that driver though, for one crashing and all the damage he may have done. and two rigs are not allowed on 85.

He'll be on the corner soon enough with a sign

Here is a video from my neighbor who is directly downstairs from me. Its a quick one and shaky but hell it was early and being woken up by the boom is enough.

I will help him upload the full length footage, which is about 15 minutes long. Again this is about 250 yards away.

Enjoy

1700 - 2300 a month sounds more like mortgage payments.

Yup but having a Live/Work space which is commercially zoned is not bad. Shoot running a business and renting would be waaaay more.

Here is the long version/RAW footage. Look at 10mins in for the nice morning shoot.

The video is still processing but should be up in 10-15 minutes.

Enjoy!
