A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred today on southbound Interstate 880 near the Stevenson Boulevard exit in Fremont, CA. The incident took place around 2:28 PM and resulted in minor injuries, primarily affecting the driver of a white Tesla.

The California Highway Patrol reported that the collision involved a white Tesla, an older white pickup truck—possibly a Ford Ranger—and a dark sedan. The vehicles were blocking the middle lane, causing significant traffic disruption. Emergency services responded quickly, with the first unit arriving shortly after the incident was reported.

By 2:31 PM, it was confirmed that the white Tesla had sustained considerable damage and was deemed inoperable, requiring a tow truck. The driver of the Tesla was reported to have sustained minor injuries, while the other drivers involved were unharmed. The California Highway Patrol managed the situation effectively, working to clear the scene and restore traffic flow.

As emergency responders assessed the situation, it was noted that the Tesla was blocking the second lane, while the older pickup truck was also involved in the collision. By 2:44 PM, two left lanes were blocked, leading to delays for motorists in the area. However, by 4:01 PM, the California Highway Patrol confirmed that the incident had been resolved and traffic was beginning to return to normal.

A tow truck arrived on the scene by 2:55 PM to remove the damaged Tesla. By 5:07 PM, the California Highway Patrol updated the incident status from unknown injuries to minor injuries. Fortunately, the quick response from emergency services minimized the impact of the collision on traffic.
