MILPITAS (CBS SF) — The driver of a big rig crane swerved to avoid a collision on Highway 237 early Friday, lost control of his vehicle, flipped over and dumped fuel across the freeway.

The California Highway Patrol reported the crash at 5:52 a.m. just one block east of the Zanker Rd. exit in San Jose near Milpitas. The crash blocked lanes 1, 2 and 3 in the east bound direction and one of the westbound lanes.
