A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred early today on the southbound lanes of Interstate 110 near the West Slauson Avenue off-ramp in Los Angeles, CA. The incident, which took place around 12:50 AM, involved a gray Tesla Model 3 and a gray truck, resulting in the Tesla being rendered non-drivable and blocking the #2 lane of the highway.
Emergency services responded promptly to the scene, where they discovered additional vehicles contributing to the traffic disruption. A blue Toyota was reported stalled in the #3 lane, complicating the situation further. The California Highway Patrol was on-site to manage the incident, ensuring the safety of motorists and coordinating the response efforts.
By 1:11 AM, the roadway was cleared through the Expo area, and all units had successfully left the scene by 1:56 AM. Fortunately, there were no reported injuries as a result of this collision. However, the blockage of multiple lanes caused significant traffic delays during the early morning hours.
Reports indicated that the Tesla was non-drivable shortly after the initial collision. Emergency responders worked diligently to manage the situation, including requesting tow services for both the Tesla and the gray truck involved in the collision.
Motorists traveling on Interstate 110 during this time were advised to exercise caution and expect possible delays due to the ongoing incident. The quick response from emergency services helped to minimize the disruption and restore normal traffic flow in a timely manner.
