9 Workers Injured When Highway Support Collapses in Corona

Road workers were lowering a section of new highway into place when it unexpectedly dropped, crashing into the wood support beams that splintered injuring 9 workers, 3 of them critically.  Eight of them remain in Riverside area hospitala this evening with serious injuries, and authorities have suspended the 91 Freeway project for the time being.

Any time there are injuries due to a construction accident you need to stop and take safety measures into account.  If civilian motorists had been injured by debris from the accident, there would be a lawsuit involving a public entity.  We are thankful that no one was killed in the accident, as this would have resulted in a wrongful death.
