MIAMI (CBSMiami) – A multi-vehicle accident on State Road 826 snarled traffic for miles Monday morning.
A chain reaction crash involving more than a fifteen cars and trucks, including an 18-wheeler and an armored truck, began with a hit and run crash just north of NW 122nd Street.
Traffic quickly backed up as all northbound lanes of the highway were closed to traffic for vehicle removal and clean up.
The back up at one point extended south to NW 58th Street in Doral.
The cleanup process took several hours and drivers were forced to get off the highway and find alternate routes to their destination.
