Accident on Route 175 Causes Tricky Traffic Flow

A tricky two-car accident on Route 175 caused some unusual traffic flow Thursday afternoon.

Tow trucks moving a white Toyota and a blue Ford blocked both eastbound and westbound lanes for short periods as police worked to clean up the accident. Car parts and pavement rubble were still strewn on the pavement as evidence of the recent crash.

According to Anne Arundel County fire spokesman Capt. James Rostek, only one person was treated for injuries. The individual was taken to Baltimore Washington Medical Center for minor injuries, he said.

Judging by the severity of the accident, it looks like traffic should be able to resume to normal flow before rush hour hits.
