CAMBRIDGE, Mass — Boston-area drivers are used to the occasional ‘storrowing’ disrupting traffic. Unless they’re also mariners, those driving through Cambridge probably had never seen a motor accident like this.
Cambridge police say a 30-foot boat fell off a trailer at Cambridge and Third Streets when the driver accelerated through the light and the safety straps of the trailer came undone.
Police say the road was closed around 7:00 p.m. for the unconventional mooring.
No one was hurt.
An unusual road closure tonight around 7 p.m., after a 30’ boat slid off its trailer at Cambridge & Third Streets. The driver stopped for the light and when they accelerated through intersection the safety chains failed and the boat slid onto the road. There were no injuries. pic.twitter.com/7LcPIZ0BLl
