"This is far from breaking news, but southland motorists once again have proven that they can’t drive in the rain.
The California Highway Patrol is reporting 315 accidents alone between 5 and 9 this morning. Compared to the 43 this time last week, that’s more than 7 fold increase.
In addition to crashes, flooding also played havoc with the roads. In the Newhall Pass, the truck bypass lanes of the 5 had 2 feet of standing water in the roadway. The 10 freeway at Santa Anita was flooded out for a while."
