A significant traffic collision involving three vehicles occurred today on the southbound lanes of the Interstate 110 freeway near West Vernon Avenue in Los Angeles, CA. The incident took place around 11:55 PM, blocking the fast track lanes and causing considerable traffic disruption in the area.
The vehicles involved included a green vehicle, possibly a Chrysler, a dark blue Volkswagen Passat, and an unknown vehicle. At the time of the incident, injuries were reported as unknown, but it was confirmed that all vehicles were non-drivable, requiring towing services. Emergency responders quickly arrived on the scene, with multiple units dispatched to manage the situation and ensure the safety of motorists.
As the situation developed, it was reported that the vehicles were partially obstructing the 39th Street on-ramp to the southbound Interstate 110 express lanes. This led to additional complications when another vehicle collided with those already on the roadway. Traffic was significantly slowed as emergency personnel worked to clear the scene and assist those involved.
By 12:21 AM, additional units were requested to help manage the traffic flow, as the blockage continued to impact the main portion of the freeway. The 39th Street off-ramp was closed to facilitate the clearing of the vehicles and to ensure the safety of emergency responders.
The final disposition of the vehicles indicates that they have been towed from the scene, and the lanes are expected to reopen shortly. Motorists are advised to avoid the area and seek alternate routes until the situation is fully resolved.
This incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices, especially in high-traffic areas. The California Highway Patrol is continuing to investigate the circumstances surrounding the collision.
