US1 Shut down For Multi-Car Accident

US1 was shut down at 7pm on Sunday, May 28 for a multi car crash where there appeared to be some injuries. Having dealt with this section of US1 almost every day, I can safely say that it's one of the most dangerous intersections in the city.

To take a wider view of the area:

This area is like a perfect storm of danger. You have cars coming off the northbound Las Olas exit cutting across 3 lanes of traffic to get into the turn lane to take Broward Blvd North. And then you get cars coming out of the tunnel blindly cutting across to either make a fast right, or turn turn right onto Broward Blvd. It's a total disaster. I can't tell you how many times I've had someone dart in front of me trying to make that right.

In this case it looks like someone was cutting across 3 lanes of traffic and caused a chain reaction type accident.

At 7:45 they were still clearing the rubble:

I wonder if a bottomless Sunday Brunch was involved?
