Three Injured in Anaheim Big Rig Crash

Three people sustained serious injuries when an SUV ran a red light and crashed into a semi-truck at the intersection of Miraloma Avenue and Miller Street.
 
The Anaheim semi-truck accident occurred on Monday, June 6, 2011 at 12:58 p.m.  The driver of a Honda Ridgeline headed north on Miller Avenue ran a red light and crashed into a west bound Fresh Foods Concepts tractor-trailer.   The big rig truck had had green light on Miraloma Avenue. The impact caused the truck driver to lose control of his vehicle.  The 18-wheeler hit a corner, went up on the sidewalk, and careened into a restaurant parking lot where it hit 5 other vehicles. Fortunately, the vehicles in the parking lot of the Alea Cafe were empty.
