repave this to make it safe for travelers. >> reporter: the problem is they don't know the condition of the roadway underneath that truck because they haven't had a look at it yet. we've waited most of the day for alliance pump lines to pump the rig dry. that fuel is so dirty from ground dirt is they've run out of filters. the best guess, the best hope, they might have it empty by 5:00 p.m. only then can a wrecking truck come in and drag that rig out of here. once again, when is this road going to open? we don't open. one estimate, as late as 8:00 or 10:00 p.m. tonight. the worst-case estimate, tomorrow morning. live from abc 7, wayne freedman. >> we'll be checking back with you, i have a feeling, several times throughout the evening. the closure is expected to have a ripple effect on the rest of the commute. this is a live look now at the golden gate bridge. you wouldn't know there's any

nowhere to run, and essentially israel can pick its target at ease. >> reporter: whether a cease-fire can be negotiated miss ascii point. they say the historic tension between israelis and palestinians would remain. >> there's a real simple solution to the rockets. if -- you know, if israelis want to live in peace, then they have to stop colonizing palestinian land. >> reporter: still there are efforts to plant seeds for middle east peace. one of the catholic church's top leaders talks about a new university that brings them all together. >> we need peace, new generation, new leaders. >> reporter: david louie, abc 7 news. and coming up on the world news, a live report from the middle east. we'll have this latest going on there. auto theft is unin san francisco 10%.

to him by facebook, twitter, and e-mail. >> the question is my doctor is changing to another medical group and to pay with her i'd have to pay 149 dollars more a year. why should i? >> if i had to guess, he's joined a firm that is a concierge medical firm. that means you have to pay some money up front. this is getting very, very complicated. about ten years ago if you talked to your insurance company and said my doctor is trying to charge extra, they would have busted the dock, to all the doctors would quit taking insurance. not so much anymore. they tend to do a little more ee ray. the less they charge the more likely they are to go along with it. more likely they are to accept a co-payment. those that you pay a lot of money per month don't deal with insurance companies at all. before you deal with your doctor call your insurance company. tell them it's a concierge

service at $149 a year and will they still bill that doctor. >> good advice. greg writes someone has stolen and used an old credit card of mine and i didn't notice until my statement arrived. >> you're cool if the way you wrote it, which is i didn't notice until my statement arrived. 60 days you should be telling them. they can charge you per charge but they almost never do that. so as long as you tell them as soon as you know about it and go, hey, someone's used my card, it's an old card, i just got the bill, it's okay. often these things don't show up until you get the bill. and russ bay says should i take the optional charge if i rent a car? >> isn't amazing? one of them is roadside service. if you have aaa, you don't need it. a lot of insurance companies offer it sometimes for a buck a

year, sometimes for free, sometimes a little bit more. there's a lots of other services out there. check your credit cards. check if you have aaa. if you dough it's probably redundant and you don't need it. coming up next, illegal weapons used for a good cause. how it's helping the local police department. and then new at 5:00. >> there's been a lots of talk on the street about how nervous people are getting. >> that's because their wheels are getting stolen. up next, one city's car crime and why the mayor is intimately involved. and man versus marine. swimming 30 miles through cold shark-filled

none of it spilled into the bay thanks to the containment by the san quentin fire department. we have homes evacuated along with 40 people. you might wonder what's taken so long. let's begin with the rig itself. both of these tanks have holes in them. >> the trailer was difficult to plug. we put a sump in place to try to collect as much product as we could and we collected as many as we could. >> reporter: the other issue has been draining whatever fuel remains. they were using another tanker to do the job. but that is so filled with dirt and grime that crews from alliance tank lines ran out of filters. that alone caused at least a six-hour delay. commuters have not been happy. >> we were in it for about an hour and a half. >> what's it like out there? >> frustrating. it's just where it's sitting. it's basically just stop and go. >> speaks of that stop and go. here's more from stop and go sky seven. this evening
