CAJON PASS:(VVNG.com)- The strong gusty winds caused a freeway sign to blow over and land in several lanes of the northbound 215 freeway at Interstate 15.
According to CHP incident logs, the 20x 20 sign landed in the #1 and #2 lanes at 11:45 A.M., causing vehicles to swerve.

The roadway was cleared by 12:06 P.M, and no injuries were reported.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department would like to remind commuters to, “Take extra precautions while driving, slow down & keep hands firmly on the wheel.”
