A significant traffic incident occurred today when a white semi-truck overturned on the connector from Interstate 210 West to Interstate 15 South in Fontana, CA. The accident happened around 9:35 AM, blocking the left lane of the transition road and causing major traffic disruptions.
Emergency services responded promptly after a witness reported the overturned vehicle. A male driver was trapped inside the cab, which was leaking fluid. Rescue teams worked quickly to address the situation, and a tow truck was requested to assist with the removal of the semi-truck.
To ensure the safety of both emergency personnel and motorists, authorities implemented a hard closure of the affected area. This closure has led to delays in traffic flow, and drivers are advised to seek alternate routes while the situation is being managed.
