A multi-vehicle collision occurred early this morning on the northbound side of U.S. Highway 101 at the Interstate 680 South interchange in San Jose, CA. The incident took place at approximately 5:59 AM and involved three vehicles: a silver Pontiac Grand Am, a white sedan, and an additional unidentified vehicle. Fortunately, there were no reported injuries among the drivers or passengers involved.
Emergency services responded promptly, dispatching multiple units to the scene to manage the situation.

By 7:24 AM, the situation was officially resolved, and all vehicles were towed from the scene. The efficient response from the Freeway Service Patrol ensured that traffic could resume its normal flow.
While no injuries were reported, this incident serves as a reminder for drivers to remain vigilant and cautious on the road, particularly during early morning hours when visibility may be reduced. Authorities encourage all motorists to adhere to traffic regulations and report any hazardous conditions immediately.
As the investigation continues, officials are working to gather more information about the unidentified vehicle involved in the collision. Motorists are advised to stay updated on traffic conditions and to exercise caution when traveling through the area.
