Tarmo Hannula/Register-Pajaronian Pickup shoots of roadway The California Highway Patrol officer investigates a solo-vehicle crash on Freedom Boulevard Monday morning where a female motorist slammed into a utility pole at 8:40 a.m. The woman, who was driving a white Chevy pickup, told the CHP she hit a patch of ice on the 7200 block of Freedom just south of Mariner Way. Her truck left the right shoulder and traveled about 75 feet on the shoulder before crashing into the pole and shearing a water main. The impact swung the truck back onto Freedom Boulevard, where it careened another 75 feet before coming to a rest backwards on the northbound shoulder. The driver escaped injury. The truck’s passenger side was ripped open and the rear axle was bent.
