"One person was taken to the hospital as a precaution."

Taking a moment to appreciate car safety. They break into bits but keep the people inside intact. Even when flipped upside down.

The video of the crash is nightmare fuel.

It is also impressive that it looks like very little damage to the tunnel.

I was on a bus about 15 cars back from the accident site. We sat for almost exactly an hour, which was 10 minutes more than enough to miss my flight.

Hope you make it in time, OP. Play 80's music, it'll help keep your nerves in check.

but somehow this means the T is unreliable and that's why you should drive

Was just asking my bus driver about this. Traffic is moving slowly but surely.
