drosser Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 At first the dispatcher said possible entrapment, then no entrapment. Also said possible signal 48. Occupants are unresponsive. I do not know how many vehicles are involved or what kind. I will keep listening. Link to post Share on other sites

drosser Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 They are making 278 eastbound a two-lane to get traffic moving. It's a mess. Link to post Share on other sites
drosser Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 The accident is in the westbound lanes of 278 right in front of Locklear Circle. They are turning traffic at Willow Springs. 278 westbound is shut down. Engine 1 on scene. I think they said they are taking one to the hospital. The transmission was hard to understand.

gwilli8866 Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 This was another accident that happened in the traffic backup as I understood it. This is the 2nd 10-50 that occured due to the traffic - rear ended in the traffic backup Link to post Share on other sites
drosser Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 Yes, it is a second accident. A rear-ender somewhere in the traffic. Something was also said about a tractor trailer. They are wanting to let the ones with heavy loads go on through. Ultimately, they are going to be sending everybody down the eastbound lanes. Link to post Share on other sites
gwilli8866 Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 (edited) They are letting the tractor trailers that are empty use the shoulder of the road to get around this - said that the ones that are loaded with heavy loads can't make it - they are using one lane of 278 westbound for eastbound traffic to get some of it cleared out. SO is walking this route looking for the rear end accident that occured in the backup Edited January 2, 2008 by gwilli8866 Link to post Share on other sites

gwilli8866 Posted January 2, 2008 Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 (edited) 278 shut down at Willow Springs - let the red trans am on thru to SO197 (this is the witness) No family members are to be allowed. Correction- the red trans a is an family member of one involved in the accident so he will not be allowed - tell them to go to Paulding Hosp. that is where he was transported to Edited January 2, 2008 by gwilli8866 Link to post Share on other sites
drosser Posted January 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2008 They want the red Trans Am to be let through. He is a witness. The SO said NO to allowing any family members through. The red Trans Am is a family member. Family members are also in a white van. Injured was transported to Paulding. The road is completely shut down at Willow Springs. No westbound traffic is moving. 46 yo woman from Kennesaw was traveling 278 wb on the wrong side of the road and hit a truck going eb head on.
