Two separate crashes on Route 208 near Lincoln Avenue took down the same utility pole on Thursday, police said.

A pickup truck heading south crashed into the pole early in the morning.

After PSE&G crews replaced it, another vehicle struck the new pole that evening.

Both incidents were caused by hydroplaning, but no injuries were reported.

The New Jersey Department of Transportation has since cleared several storm drains to help prevent future hydroplaning.
