san jose. we have michael thomas leading off our coverage live at the scene. michael. >> hey, good morning, everyone. you can see behind me they're actually starting to get that big rig on its right side up and it is, as james mentioned, filled with 40,000 pounds of strawberries. you can see them trying to drag it over. that driver is ok and that drivers there and the black hoodie, we weren't able to speak with him, but he is doing ok now. it's causing a big headache for drivers on both 1, 0, one and 80. it's caused 2 connectors to be closed. and the senior looking at is that the connector of northbound 101, northbound 8.80. that driver was merging onto northbound 8.80, from northbound 101 heading towards the east when he somehow crashed into the railing and essentially tipped over that trailer. you can see it there with all those strawberries there in the back. now, at that point, it also knocked out multiple sand buckets which spilled onto the opposite connector. those coming from trying to get onto northbound 101. and that is
6:01 am
where we are now. so as you can see, it's going to be like this for the next few hours or so. and you can see the top of that trailer has ripped open. so those gentlemen are trying to figure out exactly how they can get that trailer on its right side up along with the actual big break in the front of that and again, that driver is fine. but when it comes to that traffic, this is going to be closed, at least for the next 2 to 3 hours, according to caltrans. so as we get more details this morning. >> we'll keep you updated. and it does look like they're trying to start taking actually take some of those strawberry 1000 of those properties actually fell out of the actual big break. but it does seem that they may be moving some of them out to get it on its right side up. that's a very latest here in san jose. michael thomas, i wasn't about to 2 in the studio. >> thank you, michael 601. and we want to continue now our team coverage on take a look at the traffic and we have weather. yeah, taking it over here in the traffic center what do you say? that's right. unfortunately, this morning we're already starting off to see a pretty. >> back up here along 101. so
6:02 am
that connector ramp to 1, 1, north and northbound 1, 1, to 8.80, north. those 2 connector ramps right there. shut down. if you are trying to get around this, i would say you can take 6.80, or even want to one to 2.80, right now. we have void that area altogether as you're trying up right, that big rig pretty much the only problem spot that we're seeing across the bay area right now. your bridges look fine, 15 minute ride into the city this morning. the 7 to bridge just short of 14, 80 to 101, richmond center fell bridge 8 minutes and the golden gate bridge around 18 minutes. 37 to the tolls. they'll be working on that for most of the morning. but, john, i'm glad it's not rain in the forecast morning. us is such a beautiful morning, actually. and that is definitely a nice note. if you're getting out there, hopefully not wait in delays are at least to many of them. >> behind me, we've got a look at the golden gate bridge that i'll show you a little closer right next to me, which is crystal clear right now. you can see there is no fog whatsoever at the coastline
6:03 am
currently. and what a change from yesterday. part of the reason that we are going to be seeing temperatures little bit on the warmer side. these next several days is less access to that cooler ocean air. still a bit breezy at the coastline, but not near as much as yesterday was. temperatures are in the 40's to 50's except for pittsburgh. and brett, would you held on to the 60's last night? so relatively mild morning and after this, a warmer afternoon than what we had yesterday back to the 80's for more of our inland areas and a lot more 70's along the big sure. back to you. thanks a lot, john. 602. and today convicted murderer scott peterson returns to court for. >> the second of 3 motion hearing as a group representing peterson is asking the court to re examine dna evidence found in a piece of evidence near the peterson's home kron four's will tran following it all for us live in front of the courthouse there in redwood city. >> well, >> james, this is a huge stay for scott peterson and his family. the court will open up
6:04 am
in about 3 hours from now. the judge. we'll make a ruling by the end of today. we do expect this to go on throughout the day, but what happens at the end could be a big step for scott peterson as he is looking for a new trial. you talked about evidence he and his attorneys from the las angeles innocence project. they want evidence that to be tested for dna. peterson claims that on christmas eve, 2002, when he left his pregnant wife, lacey to go fishing, that she was still alive at the time that it was someone else who abducted they claim that there was in orange van near their home and inside that burned. orange van was also a mattress. they would like dna testing on that mattress. they believe that dna testing will show that laci peterson was, in fact, inside that van. and if that's the case, then scott peterson was not the killer that prosecutors say he was
6:05 am
convicted. it's been proven that he was the killer and they refused to turn over dna evidence unless the prosecutors accuse me unless the judge orders them to. they say that everything was airtight as far as the evidence presented at the original trial and that he should not. he granted a new trial. so a huge day for scott peterson and a huge day, obviously for prosecutors because if the judge says no on the dna testing, it could strike a fatal blow for scott peterson's attempt for a new trial. we have network news here. obviously local news anytime scott peterson's name is mentioned. it draws a lot of media attention. we will be inside the courtroom and let you know exactly how the judge rules back to you. all right. thank >> 605, at the time. and the man convicted of a woman in massachusetts has been arrested here in the bay area
