A single-vehicle collision occurred on westbound I-580 in Dublin, resulting in injuries and lane closures, as reported by the California Highway Patrol (CHP). The incident, where the vehicle was believed to have been operated recklessly, prompted the issuance of a severe traffic alert at approximately 1:15 p.m. on Tuesday. The crash occurred on westbound I-580 near Foothill Rd. in Dublin, leading the CHP Dublin office to update on social media about the event. Upon arrival at the scene, CHP and fire units found the right and center lanes blocked. A vehicle heavily damaged and overturned was observed, along with a Safeway truck that appeared uninvolved but present at the scene. The driver, identified as the only person in the vehicle, sustained severe injuries, with witnesses reporting reckless driving that culminated in the vehicle striking an embankment and overturning.
