TT jacknifed on the EB 22 in So Cal

So sad...the truck and trailer looked to be only a couple years old, if that. The truck was missing the left front wheel and the trailer was partially up on the K-rail. Looked like about a 26 footer - possibly a toy hauler. I saw no people other than Highway Patrol, leading me to believe the occupants may have already been transported. Felt so bad for this family. Imagine starting out for your holiday weekend and having it end like that.

    beckid,
    Are you saying "East Bound" S-22 between Borrego Springs and highway 86? If so, what part, if I may ask?
