A traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred today at approximately 12:12 PM on the westbound lanes of Interstate 105, near the Crenshaw Boulevard off-ramp in Hawthorne, CA. Fortunately, no injuries were reported in the incident.
The vehicles involved included a blue Scion, a Toyota Corolla, and a Honda HR-V. The blue Scion was rendered immovable due to the collision, while the other two vehicles were able to be moved to the roadside by their drivers. Emergency services, including the California Highway Patrol (CHP), responded promptly to the scene. A tow truck was requested shortly after the incident was reported and arrived approximately 20 minutes later.
By 12:30 PM, emergency responders managed to clear the slow lane, allowing for improved traffic flow. The involved parties exchanged information while waiting for the CHP to arrive, and by 12:35 PM, two of the vehicles had been successfully moved to the roadside.
The situation was handled effectively, and by 1:09 PM, the tow truck was on-site to assist with the removal of the blue Scion. The CHP confirmed that all vehicles were safely managed, and the incident was officially reopened for further processing shortly after.
Motorists traveling on Interstate 105 West should be aware of the potential for brief delays during the incident response, but traffic conditions have since improved. The CHP encourages all drivers to remain vigilant and cautious while navigating through the area, especially following a collision.
