A food truck was involved in a solo traffic collision on the northbound side of State Route 87 near the Curtner Avenue off-ramp in San Jose, CA, today at approximately 6:08 PM. The incident was reported as a traffic collision with no injuries, and emergency services quickly responded to the scene.
Upon arrival, it was confirmed that the food truck had sustained significant damage, particularly missing its rear right section. Due to the size of the vehicle, which was approximately 25 to 30 feet in length and loaded at the time, a heavy-duty tow truck was requested to assist with its removal.
Emergency services arrived at the scene at 6:39 PM. The food truck was blocking the third lane of traffic, which could have caused some disruption for motorists in the area. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, and all occupants of the food truck were unharmed.
The towing process began shortly after emergency services arrived. A heavy-duty tow truck was dispatched, and the food truck was successfully towed away by 8:02 PM. The California Highway Patrol worked to ensure that the scene was cleared and safe for traffic to resume.
This incident underscores the importance of quick emergency response and the challenges posed by larger vehicles in traffic collisions. While the food truck was damaged, the absence of injuries is a positive outcome in what could have been a more serious situation.
Motorists in the area were advised to exercise caution while traveling near the incident location, as emergency services were on the scene managing the situation. The California Highway Patrol continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the collision to ensure road safety for all drivers.
