DUBLIN, CA — A woman sustained major injuries after crashing into a Freeway Service Patrol tow truck on I-580, according to the California Highway Patrol.
On Tuesday at around 8:20 a.m., the truck was assisting a disabled vehicle at the reversed gore point of I-580 westbound at San Ramon Road, according to CHP. The driver of a Nissan Sentra entering westbound I-580 from San Ramon Road veered to the left and rear-ended the truck. This pushed the truck into the disabled vehicle.
