The bent street sign pole can be seen in the background after a single female driver's car jumped the curb, impacted the sign and rolled over at 5th S.W. just off Roxbury Street S.W. Wednesday, April 16.
A woman driver, alone in her car, flipped it after jumping a curb at 5th Ave. S.W. and Roxbury Street S.W. shortly before 8am on April, 16.
The driver who was uninjured, told the Herald, " I just got off the freeway and i was coming up the hill but I had to swerve to avoid another car. My car jumped the curb and hit that street sign and rolled over."
Her airbags in her mid 90's BMW deployed, and since she was wearing her seatbelt, she was uninjured.
This area of Roxbury Street has been the scene of numerous accidents and the area from 8th S.W. to 4th S.W. has been noted by SDOT to be among the top accident prone areas in the city of Seattle.
