Elderly Woman Hurt in 210 Freeway Crash

The woman, who was driving a sedan, slammed into the center divider on the eastbound 210 Freeway, according to the California Highway Patrol.

An injury crash involving an elderly driver in Arcadia snarled traffic on the 210 Freeway Saturday.

The crash was reported at 1:22 p.m. Saturday on the eastbound 210 Freeway at Santa Anita Avenue, according to the California Highway Patrol. Three blocked lanes were cleared by 2:40 p.m.

An elderly woman driving a silver Chevy sedan crashed into the center divider, and the man was unconscious behind the wheel, the CHP reported.

The carpool and two left lanes were blocked for a little more than an hour, prompting the CHP to issue a sigalert.

Eastbound traffic was slow from the 710 Freeway in Pasadena and westbound traffic was backed up to the 605 Freeway.

The following statement is confusing....man or woman driver?
"An elderly woman driving a silver Chevy sedan crashed into the center divider, and the man was unconscious behind the wheel, the CHP reported."

Someone was getting CPR while laying on the freeway pavement. I hope they made it.

Hi Susan, The graphic shows that in only one year from 2002-2011 were more Hispanics arrested thanRead More Blacks (2011) - if you hover your mouse over each point you can see the raw number of arrests for each group each year. That's despite there being a substantially larger Hispanic population in L.A. County. The data comes from the Dept. of Justice and was reported by the ACLU - and I believe the point of the report is that there is racial profiling going on, not to suggest that black people are using more pot. In fact, the study suggests that there is not significantly more prevalent pot use among any one racial group. The figure 2.6 times as likely refers to blacks vs. whites, as in mentioned in the first sentence of the article, and comes from the ACLU study. Our intention was definitely not sensationalism but rather to direct readers to this national ACLU study that included L.A. County data. Let me know if I can answer any other questions.
