The Morning Mile — Monday, Nov. 2
U.S. 160 is closed in the San Juans as the San Juan River heads for a record crest, three people died in a shoulder crash on I-95 in Florida, and a $1 billion safety package's truck parking money turns out to be studies and plans.

Good morning, drivers. Here is what you need to know to start Monday, November 2.
Southern Colorado is closed, not slow: U.S. 160 is shut from Wolf Creek Pass through South Fork and in Pagosa Springs, CO 17 and CO 151 are closed, La Plata County has closed all its county roads, and the San Juan River is forecast to crest at 22 feet — above the 1911 record.
Three dead in a Florida shoulder crash: A Camry left its lane on I-95 in Martin County late Saturday and hit a parked Kenworth's trailer. The truck driver was not hurt; the patrol has not said why the truck was parked or why the car drifted.
Parking money, minus the parking: USDOT's $1 billion safety package names truck parking in 10 projects, but only four grants — about $21.6 million — mention it at all, and they buy studies, a plan and corridor work, not one promised space.
That's the mile. Drive safe — full stories are on the homepage.
