Truck Struck, Commute Sucked

090407_mbta_crash.jpg

A C-Line trolley hit a flatbed truck on Beacon Street this morning. The collision caused the truck to flip onto its side, where it straddled the tracks like a hooker for several hours.

Newly minted BU students traveling between St. Mary's and Coolidge Corner got a crash course in T Shuttle Bus 101.

Other commuters rued the Day that Mr. Trucky Didn't Yield as traffic gridlocked all the way to Cleveland Circle.

According the the MBTA, four people, including the truck driver, were treated for neck and back injuries. The T also says that the scene has been cleared and that the C-line is back on schedule.
