Rollover crash on the Palmetto blocks four lanes in Northwest Miami-Dade

Another Friday rollover crash in Miami-Dade has drivers stewing on rain-slick roadways.

The latest involves a rollover on the Palmetto Expressway in the northbound lanes near Northwest 25th Street.

FL511 posted a surveillance camera image just after 1 p.m. showing four blocked right lanes on State Road 826. A line of cars is seen trying to squeeze into one lane nearest the clear express lane that is just beyond the overturned black car.

Miami-Dade police haven’t released information on this Northwest Miami-Dade crash yet.

Meantime, the early morning rollover crash on Bird Road and Southwest 127th Avenue that had shut down that roadway in Southwest Miami-Dade was cleared. Bird Road lanes were reopened around 10 a.m.
