A multi-vehicle traffic collision occurred today on the northbound lanes of Interstate 605 at Valley Boulevard in Los Angeles County, CA. The incident involved three vehicles: a gray Mazda, a gray Kia, and a green Toyota. It was reported at approximately 1:04 PM, with initial accounts indicating that a possible fourth vehicle, a gray SUV, may have contributed to the collision.
The green Toyota was blocking the third lane when the gray SUV reportedly changed lanes abruptly, leading to the collision with the other vehicles. Fortunately, no injuries were reported among those involved. All parties were able to exit their vehicles safely.
Emergency services responded promptly, and by 1:35 PM, a tow truck was called to assist in clearing one of the vehicles from the lanes. Two other vehicles were moved to the roadside. Traffic was temporarily halted in all lanes during the response but was reopened shortly thereafter.
This incident serves as a reminder for drivers to practice safe driving habits, particularly in high-traffic areas. Motorists are encouraged to remain vigilant and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles to help prevent similar incidents in the future.
Drivers in the area should exercise caution as they navigate the aftermath of this incident, although traffic flow has returned to normal.
