A hit-and-run collision involving a single vehicle occurred early this morning on the Foothill Expressway on-ramp to southbound Interstate 280 in Los Altos, CA. The incident took place at approximately 2:14 AM and involved a BMW that sustained major damage. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.
Emergency services responded quickly to the scene, where the damaged vehicle was found sideways on the on-ramp. This positioning led to temporary lane closures as crews worked to manage the situation. A tow truck was called to remove the BMW, which was towed away around 2:29 AM.
Authorities worked efficiently to clear the area, allowing traffic to resume as soon as possible. The on-ramp remained closed for a short period while the vehicle was removed and the scene was cleared.
Motorists in the vicinity were advised to seek alternate routes during the incident to avoid potential delays. The prompt response from emergency services helped minimize traffic disruptions, and the on-ramp was reopened shortly after the vehicle was towed.
This incident highlights the importance of road safety and the responsibilities of drivers on the highways. The California Highway Patrol encourages all motorists to stay vigilant and report any incidents promptly to ensure the safety of all road users.
