About the author →
Rialto was built around citrus groves and a rail depot, and both left their mark on how the city moves today. The old Route 66 alignment runs through town along Foothill Boulevard, and BNSF freight tracks still cross Riverside Avenue and other main streets at grade rather than on an overpass — a layout that predates the volume of traffic now converging on the I-10/I-215 interchange at the city's southern edge. San Bernardino International Airport, built on the old Norton Air Force Base runway just across the eastern city line, has grown into a regional air-cargo operation, and its truck traffic increasingly spills onto Rialto streets on the way to and from the 10 and the 215.

Why Rialto's cases look different
A crash at one of Rialto's at-grade rail crossings raises questions an ordinary intersection collision doesn't: whether crossing gates and warning lights were functioning, whether sightlines were obstructed, and whether the railroad itself bears any responsibility alongside the drivers involved. Separately, the cargo growth at San Bernardino International Airport has pushed more semi-trucks and delivery vans through Rialto's surface streets on their way to the freeway interchange, and a collision involving one of those commercial vehicles can bring an employer's insurance policy and federal trucking regulations into a case that would otherwise be a routine two-car claim. Rialto's older residential grid, laid out well before either the airport's cargo boom or the interstate interchange existed, wasn't designed to absorb either kind of traffic gracefully.
