JANESVILLE—A one vehicle rollover is causing traffic to slow on Interstate 90/39 one mile north of the Rest Area, just south of Edgerton.

Drivers, who do not want to be delayed, should take Exit 163 to Highway 59 if they are traveling east and get off at Exit 171 in Janesville if they are westbound.

Although traffic is moving, it will be a little slow and will only be stopped when the Med Flight helicopter lands in the eastbound lanes of the Interstate, said a spokeswoman at the Rock County 911 Communications Center.

Estimated time for MedFlight arrival is within the next 5 minutes.

If only the headline were true. Think how many lives could be saved and how much pain and suffering could be avoided.
