A traffic collision occurred today on Interstate 80 East near the Air Base Parkway off-ramp in Fairfield, CA, involving two vehicles. A black Hyundai Tucson was struck from behind, rendering it inoperable and blocking one lane of traffic. Emergency services responded to the scene shortly after the incident, which took place around 7:04 PM. The status of any injuries remains unknown.
The collision caused significant traffic disruptions as the Hyundai Tucson was unable to start and remained in the roadway. Witnesses noted a silver Toyota nearby, but it is unclear if this vehicle was directly involved in the incident. Additionally, reports indicated the potential presence of a second incident involving a big rig on the right-hand shoulder near the Air Base Parkway.
As emergency responders worked to manage the situation, a tow truck was initially called to assist with the disabled Hyundai Tucson. However, the tow truck request was later canceled as the situation evolved, and additional resources were brought in to address the ongoing traffic issues.
Motorists in the area are advised to exercise caution and expect delays as crews work to clear the roadway. The California Highway Patrol is on-site to ensure safety and manage traffic flow. Updates will be provided as more information becomes available regarding the incident.
