A traffic incident occurred today on the northbound side of State Route 99 at the Jensen Avenue off-ramp in Fresno, CA. A gray 2021 Chevrolet Silverado swerved to avoid debris on the roadway, rendering the vehicle non-drivable. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
Emergency services responded quickly to the scene at approximately 9:29 AM. The Silverado was found facing west in the center divider with its hazard lights activated. Upon inspection, it was confirmed that there was no damage to the vehicle, but it could not be driven due to the incident.
Debris, including a stool and a toy car, was identified in the fast lane, which prompted the driver to take evasive action. The California Highway Patrol arrived to manage the situation and ensure the safety of other motorists in the area.
A tow truck was requested to remove the vehicle, with an estimated arrival time of 20 minutes. By 10:18 AM, the incident was officially classified as a traffic collision with no injuries, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow shortly thereafter.
Motorists are advised to remain vigilant for debris on the roadways and to drive cautiously, especially in areas where unexpected obstacles may arise.
