An early morning traffic accident involving a big rig made a mess out of a section of Highway 101 in Ventura County all day long Thursday.
A big rig headed northbound out of near Central Avenue Camarillo flipped on its side, skidding hundreds of feet. The driver and a passenger were both seriously injured in the five a.m. accident. Two of the three northbound 101 lanes were closed most of the morning, leading to massive delays.
The third lane reopened late Thursday afternoon, but there is still heavy traffic reported in the area. There’s no word yet on what may have led to the accident.
