Beef and Tomatoes at Turnpike Plaza

(Weston, Massachusetts) Three tractor-trailers and a car crashed at a Massachusetts Turnpike toll plaza yesterday morning. One truck was hauling swinging beef, one was loaded with tomatoes and the third had paper goods. The car was carrying a driver.

One of the tractor trailers struck a tollbooth at the Weston Tolls on the eastbound side at around 2:30 a.m. Monday. A tollbooth operator was inside the building during the crash, but escaped without any injuries. [...]

The car involved was wedged underneath one of the tractor trailers. The driver of that car was taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

It took about eight hours to clear the toll plaza and restore traffic flow.
