A non-injury traffic collision occurred today at the intersection of Calaveras Road and Felter Road in Milpitas, CA, around 4:46 PM. Emergency services, including the California Highway Patrol and local fire units, were dispatched shortly after the incident was reported.
Upon arrival at the scene by 5:08 PM, emergency responders confirmed that there were no injuries reported. The collision involved multiple vehicles that were obstructing the roadway, necessitating towing services to clear the area. However, complications arose in securing towing services, leading to multiple requests being made and subsequently canceled throughout the evening.
Initially, a tow truck was dispatched to assist with the situation, but it was reported that a vehicle was located approximately 25 feet down a hillside, complicating the towing process. As the situation unfolded, several towing requests were canceled due to the inability of the first tow service to assist. By 7:25 PM, a tow truck was confirmed to be on the way to the scene, indicating that efforts to clear the roadway were still ongoing.
Throughout the incident, emergency services managed the scene effectively, ensuring that traffic was directed safely around the area. While no injuries were reported, the collision caused significant disruption, and the need for multiple tow trucks highlighted the complexities of clearing the vehicles involved.
Motorists in the vicinity were advised to exercise caution and expect possible delays as the situation was being resolved. The California Highway Patrol continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the collision, and further updates will be provided as they become available.
