You won't see these pictures anywhere else! I have a friend who is a Police Officer out in Oakland. He took these pictures from the freeway inter-change that collapsed. Don't know if the word got out in your neck of the woods but here in CA this was big news. A gas tanker, took a turn too fast and lost control. It exploded and collapsed part of the freeway. This is a MAJOR commuter nightmare out here, to this day, as this is the main route to get to the Bay Bridge which leads to San Francisco. The driver of the tanker suffered burns on his hands but was otherwise unharmed. No other people/vehicles were involved.
Picture one-Standing on one half of the freeway ramp looking across
Picture two-Standing on the edge of one side looking down at the ruble below
Picture three-Standing at the accident site, looking up to where the freeway is no longer resting on that big pylon
Picture four-Standing where the tanker blew, looking up at the burn pattern and the missing overpass
Pretty cool pictures, huh?
