A traffic collision occurred this morning on the transition from westbound U.S. Highway 50 to northbound Interstate 5 in Sacramento, California. The incident took place at approximately 6:36 AM and involved two vehicles: a white Dodge Dart and a black Honda Civic. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.

Emergency services responded promptly to the scene, where it was determined that the Dodge Dart was not drivable. Both vehicles were blocking multiple lanes, which led to the request for a tow truck to assist in clearing the roadway. By 7:09 AM, the roadway was cleared of debris, allowing traffic to resume its normal flow.

The collision caused temporary disruptions in the fast and slow lanes of the transition area, but the quick response from emergency services helped minimize any potential traffic delays. Motorists in the area were advised to remain cautious as crews worked to resolve the situation.

This incident serves as a reminder for drivers to stay alert and drive safely, particularly in transitional areas where collisions can occur. The California Highway Patrol continues to monitor traffic conditions to ensure the safety of all motorists on the road.
