Theres been a rise in accidents recently at the Golden Gate Bridge toll plaza and that increase may be related to the recent changes made there and on the bridge itself, including the new movable barrier. Abc7 News Reporter Wayne Freedman has the story you will see only on 7. Reporter you are looking at number 29. John wilson from portland, oregon would describe it as the ruined front end of his vehicle. Now a really bad day on the Golden Gate Bridge. Totally surprised. Surprised not by the number but the barrier he hit while going through the toll plaza. Hes the 29th person to report a collision in 26 days since januaryth. During the same period last year they reported only five impacts. The theory is we arent having any more collision than we are having before, its just that the impact to the vehicles is a little more severe. The bridge captain notes that the new barriers comply with federal regulations. The old ones did. The new barriers are no wider but they are tougher on cars and tougher to repair. The district has spent 187,000 on parts and labor since january 12th. Money it plans to get back from drivers who hit these barriers. The district expects this stack of spare parts in the back to last through the year. You can say honestly looking at this that this is a better system than the old system. Its a legal system. The other ones were no longer compliant. Both the district and the california Highway Patrol cites speed as a factor. But when john hit the barrier he said he was going only 4 miles an hour, but in a narrower inside lane. Was it clear to you . The way it was marked . I thought it was. As a remedy they have added these signs directing wider loads. John wilson said he missed those signs while consulting his gps. Who do you blame . Myself. I wasnt paying attention.

The feed inside to david wes the pacers snapped their fourgame win streak. Its hard enough pitching with one arm but the as have a prospect in camp who is a switch pitcher. Hes a lefty and a righty. Meet the ambidextrous pat vindete. He spent seven years in the minors with the yankees. And baseball had to create a rule just for him after this incident between these two. Enriques, hes a switch hitter so he set up to hit righty only to see him get set to throw righty, and he switches to hit lefty, and the pitcher switched to throw lefty and went back and forth for six minutes. Minutes without a single pitch being thrown. The pitcher has a custom sixfinger glove he wears. The first couple days guys will want to try on the glove but maybe after the first time a lot of people dont realize i switch. It becomes part of the game and baseball is the only thing im able to do now from both sides otherwise its strictly golf or basketball, its all righthanded. Hope he makes the team.
