A traffic collision occurred today on the southbound lanes of U.S. Highway 101 near the Central San Rafael off-ramp, resulting in one vehicle being rendered non-drivable. The incident began when a vehicle swerved into another lane, prompting the driver to take evasive action, which led to a collision between two vehicles.

Emergency services were dispatched promptly and arrived on the scene shortly after the incident was reported. The collision involved two vehicles, one identified as a silver vehicle that ended up facing the wrong way on the highway. Fortunately, no injuries were confirmed at the time of the report.

Multiple emergency units responded to manage the situation and coordinate towing services. The silver vehicle required towing due to its non-drivable condition. Initial requests for a tow truck faced challenges, leading to further coordination with towing companies. Eventually, a tow truck was arranged to assist with the removal of the vehicle from the highway.

Traffic in the area was impacted as emergency services worked to clear the scene and ensure the safety of other motorists. Drivers were advised to exercise caution while navigating the area, as the aftermath of the collision could lead to potential delays.
