Long Island Expressway [1-17-20]
In the early morning hours of Friday, January 17th, 2020 the Manhasset-Lakeville fire companies, Nassau County Police ESU, NYPD ESU, Nassau County Hazmat and other agencies operated on the scene of a motor vehicle accident in the eastbound lanes of the Long Island Expressway near New Hyde Park Road. Involved in the accident were two big rigs. One of the trucks, which was carrying thousands of gallons of liquid propane, overturned trapping the driver inside the cab. It took nearly one hour to extricate that driver. There was no propane leak or spill – only a small amount of diesel. The other driver was injured in the accident but not as seriously. The cause of the accident is under investigation and caused delays in both directions for several hours.
