A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today on the northbound lanes of Interstate 5 near State Route 138 in Lebec, CA. The incident took place around 9:36 PM and involved a semi-truck and a gray sedan. Fortunately, no injuries were reported.

Initial reports indicate that the semi-truck, displaying "Vernon Express" markings, sustained damage but was likely drivable. The condition of the gray sedan remained uncertain due to limited visibility caused by snow in the area. Emergency services responded quickly to manage the situation.

At 9:38 PM, it was noted that the gray sedan may not be drivable, but the extent of the damage was difficult to assess due to the weather conditions. A tow truck was requested shortly after 10:11 PM to assist with the semi-truck, and an additional tow truck was requested for the gray sedan. However, the second tow request was later canceled.

As a result of the collision, traffic in the area may have experienced some delays, but no specific lane closures were reported. Motorists are reminded to exercise caution while driving in snowy conditions and to be aware of potential hazards on the road.

This incident highlights the importance of safe driving practices, especially during adverse weather conditions.
