An approximately 14 foot by 60 foot mobile home is disabled in the center turn lane at the corner of Fairview Drive and Steamboat Drive in Carson City and has disrupted the flow of traffic. Motorists can expect delays through Monday morning.
According to Carson City Sheriff Ken Furlong, the mobile home lost 4 of its 6 wheels while it was being pulled Sunday evening by a truck.
The driver of the truck was cited for not having the proper license to haul the mobile home. There were no injuries.
“It’s a mess,” said Furlong. “It’s going to have an impact on Monday’s traffic.”
With the absence of wheels, the mobile home is too large to move with a regular tow truck and therefore will have to be lifted and moved by other means, said Furlong, noting that it will be sometime Monday morning when the equipment to haul it arrives.
Traffic is detoured around the accident, moving north-south on one lane along Fairview, said Furlong. We will update when it reopens.
