A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on southbound Interstate 680 near the North Main Street off-ramp in Walnut Creek, CA. The incident took place around 6:45 AM and involved a black Jeep Cherokee and a white Toyota Corolla. Fortunately, there were no reported injuries.

The collision happened in the carpool lane, prompting a response from the California Highway Patrol. Both vehicles were moved to the right side of the roadway to help alleviate traffic congestion. However, the aftermath of the incident resulted in significant traffic delays as motorists navigated around the scene.

A tow truck was requested for the white Toyota Corolla, which sustained minor damage to its left side. The tow service faced delays due to heavy traffic conditions in the area, with an estimated arrival time fluctuating as they navigated the congested roadways.

By 8:14 AM, the tow service indicated they were still caught in heavy traffic, and the estimated time of arrival remained uncertain. The California Highway Patrol remained on the scene to ensure safety and assist with the flow of traffic until the vehicles could be cleared.

Motorists are advised to exercise caution while traveling through this area and to expect potential delays as the situation is resolved.
