5:20 am
toward us. the taillights i know it's black and white but still this is from our caltrans camera. a smooth flow. by the time you get to the dublin interchange, you hit here at 680 no problems down through pleasanton. 84 starting to show that slowdown around and a typical pattern for the tri-valley. we'll see how things are shaping up into the south bay for fremont. a nice smooth flow coming toward me. continuing down toward mission boulevard. the south bay itself on the maps shows you no problem. your typical build a little bit for 101 as you pass by 680 and will bog down the next 25 minutes, the commute about 6:20. construction remains but not a major concern. a live look outside we'll see how things are for the peninsula. the volume builds but you have to limit for 101 and 280.
5:21 am
back to you. >> thank you, mike. 5:20. a pg&e shareholder is suing rather suing pg&e management claiming the company put profit over safety. the woman has been a shareholder more than 20 years. the suit alleges that pg&e's corporate culture helped lead to the san bruno explosion. she says she's filing the suit on behalf of all shareholders. the suit alleges that management diverted money for pipe line safety and used it for things like corporate bonuses instead. a spokesperson says the utility is looking into these allegations. >> 5:21. fear can be a powerful motivator, maybe what helped president obama kick his smoking habit. cnn caught a conversation between the president and a u.n. official in new york city yesterday. president obama told the official he has not touched a cigarette in about six years, the president reportedly added that's because i'm scared of my wife. the president is in new york for
