A traffic collision involving two vehicles occurred today at the intersection of State Route 18 and Mitsubishi Plant in Lucerne Valley, CA. The incident began around 8:18 AM when a gray Lexus ES350 lost control while driving through a thick spot on the roadway. Shortly thereafter, the Lexus was struck by a black and white Toyota Tacoma, resulting in both vehicles becoming inoperable and blocking the roadway.
Emergency services responded promptly to the scene. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, and both drivers exchanged information while waiting for assistance. The gray Lexus remained in the roadway for several hours, necessitating towing services.
Multiple towing companies were contacted to assist with the removal of the vehicles. A tow truck was eventually arranged, but there were delays due to miscommunication regarding the location. City Tow confirmed an estimated arrival time of 30 minutes after receiving the call.
Motorists in the area experienced some traffic disruption due to the blocked lanes, but emergency responders managed the situation effectively. The roadway was cleared, and normal traffic flow is expected to resume shortly.
