On the Skids in Carbon Canyon #9001

Just came through Carbon Canyon from the Orange County side and encountered an accident scene a little west of the county line on the Brea portion of Carbon Canyon Road.

An SUV pulling an old, small boat was heading westbound and crossed the opposite lane of traffic, coming to rest on the shoulder.  The boat and trailer slid underneath the vehicle and appeared to have caused some significant damage to the undercarriage.  At least one tire was shredded so it may have blown, causing the car to go out of control and crash.

While there were Brea police department officers there in response and directing traffic, one lane being closed, there did not appear to be an ambulance, so injuries may have been avoided.

A tow truck looked to be on scene, so the road may be fully opened soon.
