In an unexpected twist to the morning commute, two dump trucks collided on County Road 28 near the Yolo County landfill early Wednesday. This crash was reported around 7:20 a.m., just when you least want your day to start off with a bang—and this time, the intersection didn’t even throw in a coffee break!
Response from the California Highway Patrol indicates they are still gathering the facts about the incident, including whether anyone suffered injuries. As drivers navigated the aftermath, KCRA 3 sent reporter Melanie Wingo on the ground to cover the developments.
It’s an unfortunate reminder that road safety requires constant vigilance, and for drivers in the area, a single accident can turn a routine drive into a frustrating detour. So, if you’re out there, remember: it’s best to keep your distance from heavy machinery and always have a backup route planned. After all, nobody wants to be stuck in a traffic jam caused by a couple of dump trucks playing bumper cars!
