Bmw and thats when he was struck by another oncoming car he died on scene the driver of this eye on hasnt taken the as i said 2 other cars are d involved there further down in the and theyre still trying investigate if multiple crashes happened after or before the man was struck but chp says this is just another tragic story of a good person trying to help someone else, but it really just puts that person in major were standing outside of his vehicle which is inherently unsafe anytime youre outside of your vehicle standing in lanes we appreciate when people to try to help out however any time that youre not of lanes of traffic its extremely dangerous. Thats why we highly recommend if anybody is involved in a traffic collision to either get out of lanes as soon as possible or at the very least make sure that all lighting they are possible is lit up including your hazard lights on and stay inside your vehicle using any safety restraint system the eye so your seat belts well as youre about to spark that system its an extremely tragic event when you do have somebody thats just trying to other people that are in a bad situation and then they themselves get hurt. And youre looking at a live look right now theyre towing the silver bmw that again is that the car that the Good Samaritan was driving and this is right before the 3rd avenue exit as you can see only one lane is open chp is here of course trying to investigate and get this scene cleared. But also caltrans is here fired just lash so theyre working to get this cleared, they know this is a huge impact too. The morning people out there trying to get to work and they said that they hope to have it reopened around 6 oclock so a lot to stand by and see if they can get it done by then but for now this is a live look one lane open and its causing a major backup here on one oh one in san mateo for now send it back to you in the studio.

And its backed up to getting closer to what that broadway avenue exit in the burlingame area so definitely want to avoid south one to one right at 3rd avenue in san mateo because of that accident instead jump over to 2. 80 thats going to be a much better bet for you this morning, im not tracking any problems or delays and then you can take 92 back to one oh one getting san mateo a better news here the bay bridge toll plaza look at this looking grave.
