our garvin thomas joins us now with some of the answers. garvin? yes, sir, we re talking in a word about cars. just what was the story with all those cars that pulled up before finding the one they were looking for? if you searched any part of that canal, would you come up with that many? and what about the pollution? the water ends up on the crops that end up on your table. the delta canal is 117 miles long. millions of gallons of water flow flew it every day. the people rely on the canal for drinking water, and thousands of central valley farmers need it to keep their crops alive. all facts you may not have known about the canal, though one fact we do know the search for a missing 4-year-old boy. reporter: we learned from watching tv these past few weeks. they have pulled out nine cars. reporter: the canal is a dumping ground for cars. as divers search for the vehicle they thought would contain giuliani cardenas, they pulled up car after truck after car that didn t. 17 in all. it s a number that surprised many people but not local cops. no, not really. ar eric parsons is with the chp. he says access is wide open. no fences, no barriers and few gates stopping anyone from driving to it or apparently in it. reporter: most of the cars he says are stolen and have been stripped before dumping. our task force are aware of it and they try to keep an eye on it, but there s so much access. reporter: another reason this canal might be such a dumping ground, it runs through an area with some of the highest car theft rates in the country. three of the nation s top ten cities in car theft are within 100 miles of this very spot. fresno, 90 miles away. 40 miles away. and modesto, the one-time car theft capital of america, just 20 miles away. so just how many cars are there under the surface? on a yearly basis, they pull between 50 and 75 cars out. reporter: pete is with the u.s. bureau of reclamation, the canal s owner. he says a tow company regularly drags the canal looking for obstructions such as dumped cars. but at the spot of the cardenas search, it goes underground and t can they get in there reaching cars some of which have been down there for years. which does rank the question of pollution. the water delivered to farmers is not filtered. and the oil and gas does end up we should be worried about. it s kind of the same in a field where dilution is the solution to pollution. while we re using crops, there s such a small number of pollutants based on testing we ve done. reporter: while that may be a solution to the pollution, no one seems to have any idea how they ll keep cars out of this canal in the future. well, the water that s used in agriculture is not filtered, the 5% that ends up as drinking water is. when they did maintenance on the canal over ten years ago, they drained almost all the water from it, at that time they discovered 200 cars. we know jeff was out at the ballpark. burnt orange tie. yes. what a blast out there. it s going to be super fun tomorrow. it s going to be incredible. the weather is clearing out. i said there wasn t anybody out there, but it s this quiet hum. you can really feel the energy that s going to be there as we head throughout saturday with fan fest. clear skies, no frog. it s a preview of what s coming our way for saturday and also sunday. we are under a wind advisory for some of our inland spots. it s this kind coming out of the north gusting possibly 20 to 40 miles per hour from vallejo to fairfield. that will head temperatures warm up through saturday. and also for sunday s forecast. let s get a look at current temperatures. still warmth in the south bay. right now 54 in san jose. 53 in san francisco. 45 in novato but not clearly as cold as we have been the past couple nights. a little patchy fog in the north bay, but throughout, possible record-setting temperatures. this is that middle of springtime pattern, the dry air combining with high pressure producing offshore winds will keep it mild for saturday and sunday. even right into monday. we really do think by sunday, that s when we could have record-setting temperatures with mid-70s in the north bay. east bay. by 10:00 a.m. mostly sunny and low 50s for those of you throughout pleasanton, livermore. we ll start off with 50 in los gatos and 51 in san francisco. we ll be above average. 72 in san ljose. low 70s right at the peninsula. and for fan fest tomorrow at at&t park, we re looking at an expected 70 degrees there as well. a little bit of warmth across the park as we re expecting thousands to come out. 73 in napa. low to mid-70s from novato. the seven-day forecast, we have a lot going on here. also, maybe your own halftime show outside with a football or barbecue. mid-70s inland. the warmest spot with possible records in the north bay. monday, tuesday and wednesday will back, but we need the rain. same old story. it s not going to be here. so enjoy in the meantime. exactly. positive outlook. thanks, jeff. up next, back from cairo with quite a story to tell. see why this bay area woman in the center of it all says she wasn t scared of on arount d her in on around her in the streets below. t a berkeley student is back home tonight after spending a harrowing week in cairo. her and her three roommates found themselves stuck in their apartment while down below the streets of cairo raged with protests. i m watching the videos over and over again. i can t believe i was there. and i can t believe this is still happening. for me personally, i didn t get scared at all. i don t know why i didn t get scared. i guess i was just so amazed by the strength of the people and all of that, i wasn t really thinking so much about my safety and my health. yeah, the video is amazing. she was among two dozen uc students studying in cairo when the unrest unfolded. the university evacuated all of the students from that region. quite an adventure. up next, plenty of baseball to talk about tonight. and the giants, the italretvy reality tv stars. up next with sports. shift your weight forward onto the left foot. take the right leg up, holding the inner arch of the foot. introducing instant action alerts, only from chase. left arm up. manage your account and help avoid overdrafts with a click of a button. just reply to the alert with how much you want to transfer. inhale, all the way up. so you always stay in balance. .to crescent pose. chase what matters. just four more times. breakfast for lunch. breakfast for dinner. with three new breakfast lovers dishes, who needs a break from breakfast?

of the eight jovi lane. there are about five opportunities to jump in if you have a fast track clean. this is one of those sections. you see people jumping in over on that side but it is crowded on the regular lanes. as we head back to traffic track per conditions are slow their take a look north. the first opportunity is right here just passed the 84 approach. 84 brings a lot of traffic and so was cars are trying to merge over into lefthand express lane look what it has done to the rest of the 680 ride. it has backed up almost all the way to the dublin interchange past the old bridge on 681 southbound. i m not sure how much of the success we can call this express lane based on the repercussions and the impact on the other traffic. if this back up joins this back up we could look get serious problems here. lets trucks and other traffic the bay bridge ride westbound still a stable back up its not that bad it reaches back to west grand right now we are still in saddam free our best barometer are conditions here on 880. which is still not badly backed up as a say we have not had any problems on the stand. 680 southbound is slowing of but the top of your screen for the righting

first muni s new clipper card transit gate commuters found a way to open the gate simply by waving their hands. stanley roberts tell us how the authority is a responding. and other changes could be coming. last thursday kron4 showed you a major exploitable flaw in muni s 30 million dollar clipper gate system. it is a flaw that allows anyone to enter muni s pay area with nothing more than a wave of their hand, no card required. they all do it, they all do it. this glitch was first thought to be a problem only at civic center station. i did see it on t.v, so i reached around like i am coming from here. but at church street, i found the same thing, fair gates that open by simply passing your hand over the motion sensors. this is a system wide problem that muni officials knew about, but still allowed the gates to be put on line, and you paid for this. card i paid. since i was the first reporter to show you the flaw, i thought it should be fitting that i be the first to tell you this. a source inside muni, told me, because of this exploitable flaw in the clipper gate system some major changes are coming. one of those changes, the rehiring of at least four station agents, at $68000 per employ. so that unmanned booths will soon have agents. these workers were laid off during the recent budget cuts. you can keep the clipper cards forever it expires in 2038. i am also told that since clipper has gone on line there has been a significant increase in tickets issued to fair evaders. they say the increase is not related to the hand waving trick, it is because of clipper electronic cards. some people think that by simply having a clipper card is proof of payment. even thought there is no actual money on the card. one muni worker told me the clipper system was put on line with 0 inputs from muni employees, and now it has problems. in san francisco, stanley roberts, kron4 news. the number of people using the cards is on the rise it jumped 16% since the beginning of the row month. more than 50,000 new riders use of cars right during the labor day 40,000 are riders use the card at the same period. it can be used done burke muni, ac transit dumbarton express and

of your screen a motorcyclist was injured the good news is a person is up and around. but is you can see all traffic has been stopped on the golden gate bridge will emergency vehicles attend to this injured party. the first reports indicate that it was only the motorcycle that was involved, the might of rented another vehicle. but it looks as though they may be able to clear this accident in a fairly quick time. as you can see all lanes stop tears and that means northbound backups along doral drive, traffic so far this backed up to the waldo tunnel. this accident occurring just moments ago. mark. kron4 broke the story and major flaw with new high-tech clipper gates. the transit gates open when commuters just wave your hand and said of paying kron4 stanley roberts tells us the authorities responding to the as you and other changes related to this the block could be coming. major exploitable flaw in muni s 30 million dollar clipper gate system. it is a flaw that allows anyone to enter muni s pay area with nothing more than a wave of their hand, no card required. they all do it, they all do it. this glitch was first thought to be a problem only at civic center station. i did see it on t.v, so i reached around like i am coming from here. but at church street, i found the same thing, fair gates that open by simply passing your hand over the motion sensors. this is a system wide problem that muni officials knew about, but still allowed the gates to be put on line, and you paid for this. card i paid. since i was the first reporter to show you the flaw, i thought it should be fitting that i be the first to tell you this. a source inside muni, told me, because of this exploitable flaw in the clipper gate system some major changes are coming. one of those changes, the rehiring of at least four station agents, at $68000 per employ. so that unmanned booths will soon have agents. these workers were laid off during the recent budget cuts. you can keep the clipper cards forever it expires in 2038. i am also told that since clipper has gone on line there has been a significant increase in tickets issued to fair evaders. they say the increase is not related to the hand waving trick, it is because of clipper electronic cards. some people think that by simply having a clipper card is proof of payment. even thought there is no actual money on the card. one muni worker told me the clipper system was put on line with 0 inputs from muni employees, and now it has problems. in san francisco, stanley roberts, kron4 news. and we ll be right back as a [ female announcer ]

thank you. early in the noh dumbarton direction hotspot 101 cells found at the south tower a motorcycle accident motorcyclist likely struck the back of a vehicle and there are some injuries reported in this crash you signors emergency response very close here. we stop fire truck brought up from the south end of the bridge and it was brought up in the southbound lane that is why the traffic has been stopped in the southbound direction. you can see some vehicles are getting through this accident occurred on the right side the road with when i spoke with the surgeon s office they said it was the two right lanes near for lanes available subbed bounce so lanes three and four walks by this accident now that they have managed to get the emergency vehicles on scene as you can see groping at least one possibly to lanes of traffic southbound pass the accident. again it is likely or certainly possible if not likely that this accident may be fairly quickly cleared if the injuries reported to the driver did not appear to be so serious because the driver was actually observed to be up and around. so the good news is that they may be able to clear this crash early quickly. the southbound ride is backed up across the span, an hour up onto the waldegrave for southbound highway 101 if you can delay your trip during townie you probably smart to do so and give this a while to clear. this tricky to traffic tracker as we look at a hot spot 680 in the southbound direction it is in the area well below the new expressway and because of the new express lanes. traffic through the area from

it is the backup for people trying to merge into that elaine at the first possible point which is here at calder s road knotter on the hot spot in these big, let s look to the writer hayward, if so damn dumb bunny eats zero southbound starting out of oakland and continuing to san leandro in the union city and newark and fremont and across the bay the bayshore freeway is still very slow in the

to enter muni s pay area with nothing more than a wave of their hand, no card required. author they all do it, they all do author it. this glitch was first thought to be a problem only at civic center station. i did see it on t.v, so i reached around like i am coming from here. but at church street, i found the same thing, fair gates that open by simply passing your hand over the motion sensors. this is a system wide problem that muni officials knew about, but still allowed the gates to be put on line, and you paid for this. card i paid. since i was the first reporter to show you the flaw, i thought it should be fitting that i be the first to tell you this. a source inside muni, told me, because of this exploitable flaw in the clipper gate system some major changes are coming. one of those changes, the rehiring of at least four station agents, at $68000 per employ. so that unmanned booths will soon have agents. these workers were laid off during the recent budget cuts. you can keep the clipper cards forever it expires in 2038. i am also told that since clipper has gone on line there has been a significant increase in tickets issued to fair evaders. they say the increase is not related to the hand waving trick, it is because of clipper electronic cards. some people think that by simply having a clipper card is proof of payment. even thought there is no actual money on the card. one muni worker told me the clipper system was put on line with 0 inputs from muni employees, and now it has problems. in san francisco, stanley roberts, kron4 news. author the number of people using cards actually on the rise in affect hughes s third is up 16% since the beginning of the month. more than 50,000 mini will riders use the car during the week after labor day. and 41,000
