And yet the state's traffic "Radio Station", 1630 AM carried absolutely no notice of this accident. They were still broadcasting routine construction reports instead of reporting on this accident. Why? I thought they were monitoring the traffic flow via cameras at all times?

Perhaps they were at a Christmas Party?

Bottom line? This system is just another way to provide jobs for relatives and friends at taxpayer expense!

Actually, it was a tractor trailer that rear ended a gas tanker. Pretty amazing that the driver walked away from it.
