A multi-vehicle collision occurred early this morning on the northbound lanes of Interstate 405, just south of the interchange with U.S. Highway 101 in Los Angeles, CA. The incident was first reported at approximately 12:46 AM and involved three vehicles, including a black BMW and a Tesla.
Initial reports indicated a solo vehicle collision, but as emergency services responded, it became clear that multiple vehicles were involved. By 12:50 AM, authorities confirmed the presence of the black BMW and Tesla, both of which were blocking the slow lane. Witnesses reported possible injuries, although specific details regarding the extent of these injuries were not provided.
Emergency services arrived on the scene at 12:59 AM and began managing the situation. The presence of additional vehicles was confirmed shortly after, leading to significant lane blockages. Traffic was impacted as emergency responders worked to clear the roadway.
By 1:39 AM, the incident was officially closed, and the roadway was cleared for normal traffic flow. It is likely that the vehicles involved were towed from the scene due to their inability to be driven, but specific information about their condition was not disclosed.
This incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices, especially during late-night hours when visibility may be reduced. Motorists are encouraged to remain vigilant and adhere to traffic regulations to prevent such collisions.
