Rains Cause 30 Accidents in San Diego

Rains caused at least 30 crashes and minor flooding in San Diego on Monday. Between midnight and 3 a.m. 15 accidents were reported, and ten more were added to that figure between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m. according to officials with the California Highway Patrol. Luckily none involved major injuries.

Because of all the accidents that had already occurred a traffic advisory was issued around 6:50 a.m. on the Main Street on-ramp to north Interstate 5. One car knocked down a pole while another vehicle had overturned on the north Interstate 15 connector.

A large tree blocked Highway 395 south of Tecalote Lane, according to the CHP, and the Carmel Mountain Road on-ramp to northbound Intertate 5 was shut down due to flooding.  Country Club Drive and Quarry Road off state Route 125 were also shut down due to the rain.
