It's raining trouble

With winter in full bloom, Southern California woke up to wet roads on their commute to work this Monday morning. As drivers traveled on the slick roads, many were forced to stop their commute due to various accidents. As this is one of the first big rains of the year, the roads tend to be very slick, and drivers underestimate the roads. Many drivers, unaware of the roads continue their regular driving habits instead of adopting a cautious approach. The road turned dangerous and deadly for some commuters as is evident in just a handful of accidents throughout Los Angeles County.

There have been reports of a sport utility vehicle which flipped on its side on the freeway south of Chauenga Boulevard. This crash closed several lanes and multiple injuries were reported and one person transported to the hospital.

The northbound lanes on the Pasadena Freeway in the vicinity of South Pasadena were closed after a two vehicle accident which occurred at approximately 5:15 a.m which closed lanes and reopened nearly three hours later.

At approximately 6:30 a.m. there was a multi-vehicle accident that occurred on the Pasadena Freeway closing one lane in the vicinity of Via Marisol, where minor injuries were reported.

There was a closing of part of the 210 Freeway on the east side of Pasadena when a FedEx truck was involved in an accident and spilled oil. This closed some lanes for several hours.
