Late Night Vehicle Accident Knocks Out Power in Antioch

by ECT

Buchanan Crash Antioch

At 11:59 pm, emergency crews responded to a vehicle accident on Buchanan Road near San Jose Dr. in Antioch which left a vehicle up against a side of a home while knocking out power.

The vehicle was reportedly going at a high rate of speed which went over the center divider and into oncoming traffic. It then hit a pad mounted transformer which knocked out power before going through the side of a garage and landing into the yard of a house next door on its roof. It came to a stop while leaning against a home.

According to the Antioch Police Department, this appears to be an accident involving speed. No arrests were made and no information was provided on injuries.

I live a few houses down. People drive down Buchanan like its a freeway doing sometime 50-65 miles an hour. its a 30mph zone. On top of that its residential street and people act like it does not matter. This road does not need to be 2 lanes and it should have undulations installed every couple hundred yards. This s the 2nd roll over accident in the last 6-8 months on a 30mph street both had speed involved.. the other happened next door to me as an older lady hit a parked car on the side of the road and flipped. Its a little out of hand .

Way out of hand all over town. It can’t be two lanes. Last night at 6pm it was solid cars, stopped, from Contra Loma to Delta Fair just trying to get home. Way too much traffic and as the freeway construction ratchets up on the other side of town even more traffic will be on Buchanan.

People will honk their horns at me if I drive the speed limit.

Welcome to Antioch, where the ghetto trash thrive and the civilized people are killed.

That’s NOT an Accident, it’s a CRASH.
The speed limit is there for a reason.
