A garbage truck toppled a railroad warning light Wednesday in the
Pembroke area of Virginia Beach and an illuminated street sign a
block away. The truck, from Waste Management of Hampton Roads, was
headed south on Independence Boulevard about noon when its forks hit
the overhang and the structure fell, blocking two lanes of
southbound traffic. Police, city traffic engineering employees and
Norfolk Southern workers arrived on the scene minutes after the
accident.
