A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred late last night on eastbound State Route 4 near Loveridge Road in Pittsburg, CA. The incident took place at approximately 11:12 PM on November 2, 2024, involving a 2007 Toyota Yaris and a Honda Civic.
Emergency services responded promptly to the scene, where initial reports indicated that the occupants were in shock. Fortunately, the extent of their injuries was not immediately known, and no serious injuries were reported. However, the Honda Civic suffered significant damage, necessitating the arrival of a tow truck.
As first responders arrived, they found the eastbound lanes of State Route 4 partially blocked due to the collision. Traffic was halted for a brief period, with all lanes completely stopped around 11:29 PM. This caused a significant backup as vehicles were unable to proceed past the accident site.
By 11:34 PM, emergency crews managed to clear the left lanes, allowing traffic to resume movement to the right side of the roadway. The situation was under control, and the lanes were fully reopened shortly thereafter.
A tow truck was dispatched to assist with the removal of the damaged vehicles. The Honda Civic was towed away due to the extensive damage it sustained during the collision. The scene was cleared by 1:07 AM on November 3, 2024, allowing traffic to return to normal.
Drivers in the area were advised to exercise caution and be aware of potential delays as emergency services worked to manage the aftermath of the incident. The quick response from emergency personnel helped mitigate the impact on traffic.
This incident serves as a reminder for all drivers to stay alert and drive safely, particularly during late-night hours when visibility may be reduced.
