of the bridge. at about 415 thursday morning, someone in the car called 911, but within minutes before help arrived. >> shortly thereafter, a toyota tacoma, uh, crashed into the rear of the mini cooper. >> san francisco firefighters had to use special equipment to cut off the top of the car to get to the victims. it is difficult because the cars are mangled up and space is very limited, so it does take a lot of training to be able to access the patients and try to make it as quick as possible. >> the driver of the pickup was seriously hurt, but is expected to survive. >> we asked the chp whether people are supposed to stay in their car after a stall or crash . >> that is open for debate. there is not a right or wrong answer, chp officer mark andrews says. >> generally speaking, the chp recommends pulling over to the closest shoulder, activating your emergency blinkers and keeping your seatbelts on. but there's no shoulder on the lower deck of the bridge just west of treasure island, where the crash occurred, the mini cooper ended

up in the number four lane. there are five lanes on the bridge, so the car had not moved all the way to the right. it's going to be a case by case scenario. >> uh, what? someone will decide to do if they feel like they have the opportunity to exit the vehicle safely and try and move as far away as possible, then do so. >> he says the pickup driver could have potentially steered away from the mini cooper in time, or minimize the impact. >> we don't know exactly what this driver, the toyota was doing just before the collision. if he was distracted, if he was going too fast. um, but obviously this could have been avoided. >> it's unclear if this mini cooper had started out in the fast lanes, and it was trying to move over to the right into the slow lanes, or if it stayed in that number four lane until the crash. now, the names of the three victims who died have not yet been released. live near the toll plaza. henry lee ktvu fox two news tragic story henry. >> thank you. >> cal fire firefighters rescued a person from a car in santa cruz county. officials say

an eye on that coyote. we'll give you a little update at the end of our story here. uh, back to the matter at hand, though, mike, as you'd asked about right now, it is free to walk across the golden gate bridge and other bridges here in the bay area and up and down the state. and while there are no plans for that to change, assemblyman, uh, san francisco assemblyman is taking what he calls a preemptive step up. people come from around the world to visit the iconic golden gate bridge, many choosing to walk its 1.7 mile length. now san francisco assemblyman phil ting has introduced assembly bill 2669, making sure that trip and walking and biking trips across other publicly owned california bridges stays free. >> we want to ensure that we can have this right in perpetuity for cyclists and pedestrians to ensure that they can walk and bike across the bridge freely without being worried about being charged a toll. >> the golden gate bridge highway and transportation district says it hasn't had a chance to review the legislation, so it doesn't have a formal position, but did confirm it has no plans to charge a toll for the sidewalks

on the golden gate bridge. >> that was my first time. i was really, really nice. i'm just visiting the city first time, just looking at everything. >> visitors to the bridge say paying to walk on it would diminish the experience. people might feel like they're being shaken down to experience the city, you know, and bay area locals like jasmine from oakland agree. >> i don't think that's a good thing because, i mean, if you look around like all these beautiful people out here are enjoying themselves. so like, i feel like they they shouldn't charge people to do something like that, you know, a move to charge pedestrians isn't unprecedented. >> in fact, from 1937 to 1970, pedestrians paid to cross the golden gate bridge, the golden gate bridge, highway and transportation district is, like many transit agencies, is facing a budget crisis, assemblyman ting says lawmakers need to work on a better long tum fix than tolls, and eventually have voters decide how to pay for public transit and bridges going to the voters to fix that gap. >> because to say, hey, you know, voters, if you if you want

a vibrant public transit system, you got to go support it. >> the golden gate bridge highway and transportation district said it was. grateful to assemblyman ting for his, quote, strong support of the golden gate bridge and active transportation in the bay area. the bill is now headed to committee and could be on the governor's desk in september. coming back to our live shot as promised, we're going to take one more look at that coyote here. uh, out on crissy field. it is hunkered down there in the bush there. and as i said earlier, it looked like it was maybe getting ready for a hunt. this, uh, from past coverage, i know that they are active at dusk and dawn. and of course, there's a lot of wildlife out here around crissy field. the one caution cautionary measure is that i've noticed that everybody has been keeping their distance trying to stay away. that's which, of course, you're supposed to do is let them go ahead and do their coyote thing. we do. our people thing. and of course, anybody who has dogs with them just kind of stay

clear. and i've noticed a lot of people doing exactly that. guys. uh two stories for one. mike. how's that? uh, we're live here in san francisco. christien kafton, ktvu, fox two news. yeah >> those coyotes, they are around crissy field. great spot in the city, too. all right, christine, thank you for that. bart will not be running trains between the richmond and el cerrito stations this weekend. the pause will allow crews to replace old track equipment and remove trees along the line. busses instead will be running between those stations. they'll also run on three upcoming weekends to accommodate the project. bart suggests riders plan for about a 20 minute delay. so far, the rain is not expected to disrupt the project already. >> a nice day today. dried out pretty nicely. a little bit of sunshine as well. temperatures were about 5 or 7 degrees warmer than they were yesterday, so everything worked out in our favor. the chance to dry out. here's what the model does. the long range model that we often look at. this will mimic the five day or the seven day as we go through time here. so as you look, there's tomorrow a lot of clouds tomorrow. by the way,

there's 6 a.m. friday somewhere around friday night, this guy starts knocking at the door. this is going to be saturday's system right there. that looks pretty good. that looks good. that looks certainly stronger than what we had yesterday. yesterday we got anywhere from an inch to a quarter of an inch to less of rain. this system appears to be able to deliver maybe a solid inch and a half in some areas, maybe a little more, but mostly an inch and a half, down to about a quarter of an inch. back end comes through sunday, late or sunday, early morning, sunday is pretty, not pretty. okay, most of the day. and then the clouds and showers move in sunday evening and then you get into sunday night, monday morning, and then a lot of the energy shifts south on tuesday and into wednesday. so kind of a wet period coming our way. although the upshot to it is, despite what you might be hearing, we're getting breaks. right. and so those breaks are going to allow us to manage that water and make it beneficial as opposed to oppositional. the jet stream is lined up. we've got systems out in the pacific. this is what happens when you get an el nino year. often and you get

atmospheric rivers. they line up. that's why so many things can change, because there's what you got three of these things or those three sectors, each one of those sectors is a lot of a lot of fetch, a lot of distance between them. so lots of things happen out in the pacific, thousands of miles, you know, out in the pacific. so things will change, like that stronger storm on monday could move around easily as it has the potential to be a bit of a cut off. and that would could do almost anything. so here's how it goes. what i just showed you for the next couple of days, it's going to hold true tomorrow. looks good. mostly cloudy. and then tomorrow night late showers develop and then saturday is a wet day. we'll get back to the full forecast coming up in a few minutes. >> all right. see you in a bit, bill. thank you. the ballers have a new home coming up. a new oakland baseball team shows off where it will take the field. since the a's will not allow them at the coliseum. >> and coming up tonight at six, a new idea to address retail theft problems across california. and lawmakers say this one could make radical changes without needing voter approval. also, a reminder here that you can now stream ktvu

clear, clean water. snowpack wise. the uc central sierra snow lab reports that we're now 88% of the historical amount of sierra rain and snow for this date, but that the water content in the snowpack is only 57. the reservoirs are in far better shape and with a lot more water coming, provided that it keeps coming. >> it's great to see this stream of storms because to get even up to average conditions, we need 4 or 5 big storms during our winter wet season. >> as of thursday, california's big six mega reservoirs are 76% full, but that's. 115% what is usually in them. on this date. statewide on average, california's more than 154 reservoirs are at a healthy 118. that's enough water to cover every square inch inside the state with three inches of water. however we would need

double that to completely fill all the reservoirs. >> we're better off this year because we didn't have that dry condition last year. >> underground storage and aquifers remains deficient because we've overdrawn them for so many decades. big money needs to be invested in land acquisition, allowing floodplains to actually flood and building injection wells to replenish this critical underground source. the right investment s from the work we've done show that it's at least ten times the cost. ski wise, the holiday ski weekend looks to offer another wowser. >> yeah, i mean, we got a foot of snow overnight. it's still snowing right now and there's more storms on the way this snow right now is really light and fluffy, and most of our mountain has really great coverage. >> but with the string of storms still coming, drive only when it's likely not to be. when cal trans is fighting snow dumps, it's going to be a great ski week. >> i just really suggest

checking with the road conditions with caltrans, making sure we're laying down the sand to increase traction. >> we try to get the salt down when we're battling it to break up any ice that's going to be forming. just stay home. >> stay home if you can. yeah, that's what we would have done if we could turn back the clock. >> interesting to note that palisades tahoe says ski season could last into may at least last year. it lasted into july. maybe it'll happen this time again. tom baker ktvu, fox two news. >> all right, tom, thank you. >> well, federal lawmakers are expressing their concerns about plans to build a new city in solano county. that plan is backed by silicon valley billionaire. today, state congressman mike thompson and john garamendi hosted a forum about the proposed california forever development near travis air force base. lawmakers say project organizers have not answered basic questions, such as where would the water come from for the new homes or where would the sewage go? >> they may be the greatest people in the world with the most lofty ideas and an odd

humanly possible. >> but that's not likely to happen soon. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says he won't even consider the latest ceasefire proposal until hamas softens its demand for an israeli withdrawal from gaza. >> i insist that hamas dropped their delusional demands, and when they drop these demands, we can move forward, netanyahu also says israeli forces will expand their offensive into the southern city of rafah, where more than a million palestinians have fled since the start of the war. >> in tel aviv. trey yingst, fox news. well, tax season has begun and today the head of the irs is in the hot seat on capitol hill. >> coming up, the tough questions about new tax laws and a very impressive sneaker collection going up for auction. >> so these shoes that she's got are really special. they're all retros. they're all limited edition products. >> coming up, the unlikely collector and how she'll be honored by the sale i'll
