JANESVILLE--The Wisconsin State Patrol is reporting that a single vehicle rollover accident is causing significant traffic delays on Interstate 39/90 south of Janesville.

The state patrol reports that people in the crash had minor injuries in the crash, which happened shortly before 3 p.m. near mile-marker 182 between townline and creek roads in the town of Turtle.

The crash has created a traffic delay as emergency responders work at the scene, and traffic is backed up about four miles in either direction of the crash in the eastbound lanes of I-39/90, a state patrol official said.

Delays were expected to last up to an hour.

Who- AP puts out the news. The Gazette has admittedly edited AP stories in the past. AP screws them up and Gazette just follows their lead.

Can't wait for the interstate widening to happen. There's simply too much traffic and too few lanes.

Look under the title. It came from the AP wire and got posted. Nobody at the Gazette has control over the wording.

Hey give Rick a break, maybe he is just trying to show the Gazette his proof reading skills....after all he does want money.

I just came south from there, it's 5:00 and it was crawling or dead from Craig to toll both in IL. Going north/west was fine.

Don't you assume they put the story up within a few minutes of getting word, and will correct it? Errors were made in an attempt (I believe) to get the story to you quicker, not for your amusement. I can't imagine nitpicking errors in this instance when lives were in danger.

You know... a " vehicl ".. a shorter version of a "vehicle" :)

Plus " Townline " and " Creek " should be capitalized.

My son and i were about 30 seconds behind this accident, from the looks of the scene they were all lucky to have only minor injuries. Our thoughts and prayers are with them and their families.
